2025 SCNZ Excellence in Steel Awards – introducing finalist #18 of 20:
Over $3m Finalist: Stadium Taranaki
Stadium Taranaki’s new Eastern Stand is a major achievement in structural steel design. This 700-tonne structure features sliding seismic raker joints and 27m cantilever rafters, bolted at just two points and extending 14m over the seating. The result: a sheltered, unobstructed view of the field for spectators.
