Fast + Epp installs arches for new PNE amphitheatre

AI Article Summary
Fast + Epp, a consulting engineering firm, has installed three King Arches for Vancouver's Pacific National Exhibition Freedom Mobile Arch, which is one of the largest free-span timber roofs worldwide. The King Arches, composed of 27 segments, have been pre-assembled to ensure structural integrity and connect directly to concrete buttresses and glulam timber beams. Temporary supports are in place while the structure is completed and will be removed once the roof is self-supporting. The new amphitheatre, set to host World Cup events in 2026, will accommodate up to 10,000 spectators.
