Under a 9 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 14 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 85.8 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 137 x 14 (23016 x 2352 px, 19,180 kg, 354.8 kW).

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.

Seating estimate

After a 12 x 7 m stage, Grand Ballroom holds about 10,280 theater seats, 4,205 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 2,891 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 78.8 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.

Rigging points

294 points from the venue rigging plot (labels shown in the previz). Pick two for a flown wall in the previz and it draws the bridle lines to the truss.
