Hotel and Leisure - H Range (Carpet) Stair Nosings
Case Study
Challenge
The Hexagon is a well established multi purpose venue, in the heart of Reading that was built in 1977. As well as drama productions, it hosts a range of events such as Dance, Comedy, Classical Music, Rock and Pop concerts.
The venue can hold up to 1600 people, with much of the capacity arranged in levels of banked arena-style seating with stepped access.
The nature of the performances at the venue mean access up and down these stairways by patrons is often in low light levels which means there is a risk of slips and falls.
