What fits in Performing Arts Center

With a 9.1 m ceiling, a flown wall of Absen A2 Pro (2.97 mm) runs 142 tiles wide by 14 high (1988 tiles, 71 x 7 m, 23856 x 2352 px) once you keep 1.5 m of trim under the bottom edge. That wall weighs about 19,880 kg and draws up to 367.8 kW (1768 A at 208 V). Floor space after a 12 x 7 m stage seats roughly 17,376 theater, 7,108 banquet, or 4,887 classroom. The previz lets you move the wall, change the tile, and check sightlines from the back row.

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.

Planning notes

No rigging point data is published for this venue yet; plan on ground-supported LED or ask the venue for its rigging plot. 2 of the 47 rooms sit under 3.5 m, which rules out flown LED there and limits ground-stacked walls to about 6 rows of 500 mm tile.

Load-in logistics

Charleston Area Convention Center is in the trade-show logistics database: 200,000 sq ft total, 28 ft exhibit-hall ceiling, see the trade show logistics tool for advance-warehouse dates and drayage.
