SSE PREFoam™ Stadium Seating Riser System Clients

Over the past ten years Stadium Seating Enterprises, Inc. has had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of clients throughout North America. We have provided our PREFOAM Stadium Seating Riser System designs for Architects, General Contractors, Subcontractors and Facility Owners within a wide variety of building types including Theatre, Worship Facility, Live Entertainment, Church, Educational Lecture Hall and Corporate Training Auditorium Facilities. In each case, we have taken pride in our responsive service, professional interaction, ability to meet stringent budget and time constraints and innovative design solutions.

Because all of the SSE hands-on professionals have degrees in Architecture or Engineering, we are able to respond to design professionals in a collaborative manner that is focused on providing the best possible solution to the theatre seating design criteria. Once the initial layout of the church, auditorium, worship facility, theatre, or lecture hall tiered stadium seating is complete, the SSE team will work from the design development stage providing alternative ideas regarding the system assembly and methods of achieving economy and functionality for the client. During the construction document preparation, our staff supplies a completely pre-engineered solution including AutoCAD details and specifications for the stadium seating riser system to be incorporated into the final bid package.

SSE installation shop drawings are fully developed for each component and each level of the theatre or stadium seating so that no additional design or engineering is required by the A/E Team. This approach will reduce design costs for the Architect and the Client and contributes to a comprehensive solution to the stadium seating riser system design. In addition, if structural engineering design is required for the stadium seating riser system, SSE can facilitate the incorporation of outside registered professional engineering consultants to be added to the team that have specific experience providing engineering designs and calculations for the SSE PREFOAM Stadium Seating Systems as required by the jurisdiction of the project. SSE is the only company in the nation with an approved stadium seating design using Geofoam for seismic zone four church, auditorium, worship facility, theatre, or lecture hall projects.

Having worked with a wide variety of owners in the Cinema, Worship, Educational, Government, Corporate and Live Entertainment industries, SSE realizes that diverse project types and clients can require a different approach to meet their specific needs and requirements. The economical nature of the SSE PREFOAM Tiered Stadium Seating Systems is always a primary concern, however, depending on the market sector; other priorities take precedent for differing clients. Our ability to service this variety of clients requires the personal attention of our ownership and tailoring our services to meet every client's specific personality and needs. This is an approach that has characterized our company since our inception.

The SSE PREFOAM Permanent Stadium Seating Forming System maximizes the productivity of the contractor that is installed easily and quickly allowing the facility owner to occupy the lecture hall, cinemas, church, auditorium, worship facility, theatre, or entertainment venues as soon as possible and start producing revenue or providing services long before conventional methods of construction would allow. SSE can also recommend outside installation contractors with experience with the SSE PREFOAM Stadium Seating System to work with the building general contractor for a fast and easy installation. In many cases, SSE has contracted directly with the facility owner minimizing mark-up from other entities.

Over the years we have found that Contractor and Subcontractors are some of the biggest supporters of using the SSE PREFOAM Permanent Stadium Seating Forming Systems. With the SSE PREFOAM Systems every cost for the installation of the system is spelled out from day one. There are no surprises and no hidden costs.

In more than 90% of the cases, our first job with a contractor is the first time they have ever installed an EPS Geofoam tiered stadium seating system. And, in virtually every case, after the first round of installations, they have concluded that the SSE PREFOAM Systems are the most economical, easy to install and efficient method of constructing tiered seating in the market.

The SSE Systems are installed late in the construction sequence allowing the subcontractors to finish all the high work in the platform areas without the need to scaffold over the riser platforms. Because of the detailed SSE shop/installation drawings and the logical assembly of the PREFOAM Permanent Stadium Seating Forming Systems, the installation lends itself to the economical use of unskilled labor when applicable. SSE management works in a hands-on basis directly with the general/subcontractor's field crew from preconstruction through the final concrete pour to insure that all questions are promptly answered and the experience gained through the installation of hundreds of systems is brought to the table. SSE hands-on management of material delivery to the jobsite allows the contractors to schedule "just-in-time" deliveries of the material to the jobsite.

The use of the SSE PREFOAM Stadium Seating Systems provide benefits to the entire project team from architects and engineers to facility owners to general and subcontractors. Our best references are our clients. We work hard to earn their trust, respect and repeat business.
