Custom Marching Band Platform

Challenge: Union County High School (UCHS) needed a director’s platform for their band to replace the scaffolding previously used. The platform had to provide an elevated, clear view of the football field so the band director could effectively lead formations during football season.

Solution: Panel Built delivered an 8' x 8' cold-rolled platform, standing 12' tall, to offer a clear view of the football field. The platform was custom powder-coated in UCHS Panthers purple and gold, with galvanized bar grating for weather resistance. OSHA 2-rail handrailing was added for safety, and the cold-rolled construction allowed UCHS to save on both cost and lead time.

Key Features:

  • Custom Powder-Coated Finish: The platform was finished in UCHS Panthers purple and gold, perfectly matching the school's branding.
  • Galvanized Bar Grating: The decking and stair treads were made of galvanized bar grating for superior weather resistance.
  • OSHA 2-Rail Handrailing: To ensure safety, OSHA-compliant 2-rail handrailing was installed.
  • Cold-Rolled Construction: The use of cold-rolled steel reduced both costs and lead times, providing an efficient solution for UCHS.

Conclusion: Panel Built’s custom platform for Union County High School demonstrates our ability to deliver tailored, high-quality solutions that meet specific needs. This project reflects our commitment to safety, cost-efficiency, and timely delivery for educational institutions.
