Perth Arena Moving Roof

The Hyundai Hopman Cup at its home at the Perth Arena, with all matches played under the Vector Lifting Retractable Roof.  Being an opened air event to replicate conditions for the Australian Open, the Retractable Roof was opened and adjusted throughout the entire tournament, with operation occurring during match play over both players and spectators.
Vector Lifting designed, manufactured and installed the travelling equipment, including control system for the two separate roof panels. Each roof panel is controlled independently to provide shade for spectators, protect the bowl area from inclement weather and to track the sun to prevent shadows being cast on the court.

MCA Retractable Roof
Vector Lifting was contracted to design, manufacture, install and commission the Moving Roof for the new stadium upgrade for the Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne. All components, including the main drive bogies, trailing bogies and control system were manufactured and installed by Vector Lifting. Design development and site installation included working along side the arena architect and structural engineer to develop a product that suited the design scope of the project. The complexity around the structure and the requirements outlined by the architect ensured constant collaboration was required to achieve a successful outcome. Pictured, below, is one of the Roof Main Bogies being craned onto the fixed roof runways.
