Dismantling and re-erecting the Dome
Subsequent dismantling and re-installation will take
approximately ½ a day with 3-4 persons. The membrane
is folded onto a mobile trolley on castors which is then rolled off court
into the
storage area and covered with a tarpaulin if a shed
is not provided. The wire ropes are best coiled up or removed
completely to the storage area and covered up. The fans and the
revolving door can also be removed from site if
required.
If there is a concern of a trip hazard caused by the
exposed anchor eyes during summer, they can be
covered by a wooden channel or a plastic version
from Covair. It is inadvisable to remove these eyes
due to difficulties experienced in re-installing
them.
For clubs wishing to erect a dome over existing
courts with a limited amount of perimeter space,
ground anchors can possibly be used in place of a
concrete ring-beam. There is far less disruption and
no dig to dispose of. Costs are similar, but we
would need to be informed of any buried services.
Dismantling and
re-erection can be carried out either by Covair or
the club. |
