Abstract:
The new roof at Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre in Colorado, USA, is supported by large “Y”-shaped composite steel and concrete columns. The formwork for the columns was split into four components: two sections for the base and two sections for each branch of the “Y” column tops. The shoring system designed to house the formwork integrated a work platform for workers placing concrete in the form.
