Safe Ground Support for LED Walls: AV Structure Integration in Barcelona
The centerpiece of almost every major corporate event today is a massive LED wall. These high-resolution screens are stunning. However, they are also incredibly heavy.
A typical LED wall can weigh over 50kg per square meter. Therefore, when you build a large screen, you deal with tonnes of equipment. This expensive hardware needs absolute stability.
International Production Managers often face a critical gap. They have a great AV supplier for the screens. Additionally, they have a scenic supplier for the decor. But who is responsible for the structure? Who holds the two together safely?
At Saez Decom, we bridge that gap. We specialize in designing certified Ground Support systems. We build heavy-duty structures that integrate seamlessly with AV requirements in Barcelona venues.
Here is how we ensure your technology is safe, stable, and compliant.
1. The Challenge: Understanding Point Loads
You cannot simply place a large LED screen on a standard stage deck. The concentrated weight on the screen’s feet is high. Consequently, it can easily exceed standard floor limits.
Furthermore, outdoor screens require strict wind calculations. Stability is non-negotiable.
The Saez Decom Approach: We don’t guess. We calculate. Before a truss is lifted, our technical team analyzes the weight. We use the data provided by your AV partner. Then, we determine the necessary ballast and the correct footprint.
2. Certified Structures: The Foundation of Safety
Any support structure is only as strong as its base. Therefore, we use industry-standard, certified hardware.
High-Load Stage Decks (The Base): Before building up, we ensure the floor holds. Our modular stage decks are not standard wood platforms. They are built with a 21mm marine plywood core. This sits on a reinforced aluminum frame.
The Homologation Data: Safety is our priority. Our decks are officially homologated for a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 800 kg/m².
Why this matters: This capacity ensures stability. Even with heavy static point loads from LED stacks, the platform remains rigid. There is zero deflection.
Therefore, when venue safety inspectors ask for certifications, we are ready. We provide documentation for both the support system and the stage decks. Fira Barcelona, IFEMA Madrid.
3. Seamless AV Integration: We Speak Their Language
We know we are not the only supplier on site. Our team is experienced. We work directly with major international and local AV providers.
We understand their technical requirements. This includes cable management paths and rear access for technicians. Additionally, we check mounting hardware compatibility.
We build the “bones” precisely according to their CAD plans. Consequently, when the AV team arrives to hang the panels, everything fits. This saves crucial build-up time.
4. Masking the Tech: The Finish Line
A raw truss structure holding a screen rarely looks good. It does not fit a corporate event aesthetic.
Once the structure is certified safe, we switch hats. We go from “constructors” to “scenic designers.” We use our Pipe & Drape systems or hard panel cladding. These completely mask the support structure.
The audience sees only the floating screen. The client sees a clean, professional finish.
Summary: Safety Foundation for Your AV
Do not take risks with heavy AV equipment. Ensure your LED walls are supported by certified structures. These must be calculated and built by local experts.
