Wenzhou Sports Center Stadium: Eight"Giant Lifts" + Intelligent Grass Care

The Wenzhou Sports Center Stadium features an intelligent grass care system that includes 18 sensors installed under the turf. These sensors collect data on the temperature, humidity, acidity, alkalinity, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium content of the grass roots, as well as the light intensity, sunshine hours, and solar radiation on the surface of the grass. The data is transmitted to the cloud platform's data center through mobile communication, allowing direct viewing on visual terminals such as smartphones and computers. Based on the data, scientific maintenance can be conducted to achieve"intelligent grass care."

In contrast to the installation of lighting fixtures for the main stadium of the Wenzhou Olympic Sports Center on a racetrack 40 meters above the ground, the Sports Center Stadium features eight"giant lifts" with a height of 53 meters each (51 meters for the pole and an additional 2 meters for lightning protection). Each lighting fixture and bracket weighs up to 4 tons. This design of eight lifting high-definition sports lighting poles is rare in the country.

The choice of lifting poles is due to the lack of a roof canopy above the spectator stands of the Sports Center Stadium. Due to this condition, the lighting poles had to be installed outside the venue. Considering Wenzhou's proximity to the coast and its frequent exposure to typhoons, the design adopted the eight lifting pole solution to ensure the safety of the venue during the typhoon season.

A total of 296 sets of Marsco LED 1500W professional sports lighting fixtures are installed on the eight lighting poles for the field lighting, 32 sets of LED 600W fixtures are used for the spectator stands lighting, and 24 sets of LED 900W fixtures are used for emergency lighting. Equipped with an intelligent dimming system, the lighting can be switched to meet different mode requirements. Under the premise of meeting the high-definition broadcasting requirements for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, it also considers the needs of other comprehensive events and public fitness activities. The precise light control technology ensures more accurate, flexible, and energy-saving lighting, providing a more comfortable environment for athletes and spectators. The patented glare control technology eliminates glare and provides a comfortable environment for athletes and spectators.

Furthermore, the Sports Center Stadium's renovation project embodies the concept of frugal competition. The entire venue utilizes existing building spaces and transforms them into supporting and professional functional spaces suitable for the Asian Games through techniques such as soft partitioning. The waterproofing of the roof of the grandstand area is not destructively modified. Instead, the original surface layer of the grandstand area is partially repaired and coated with a refreshing polyurea waterproof and wear-resistant special coating. (ZhongXin)
