Floor Load Weight Limits

Floor Load Weight Limits

When moving and positioning heavy items within the venue, it is important to consider the floor loading of the area and the path available to that area. The Exhibition Centre halls have a floor loading capacity of 20kpa (2000kg/sqm).

Factors to be considered by any person working in any area of the venue include:

  • Weight of the item
  • Dimensions of the item
  • How it will be transported within the Centre
  • Weight of any handling device (e.g. forklift)

If unsure about floor loading capacity for the intended use, please advise the Operations Manager before the event, as there may be considerations such as surrounding heavy exhibits that affect the floor loading calculations.
