This page was created after the 2009 RSAMD Panto "Sleeping Beauty", so that it may be used as a resource for future TSM/Production carpenters to use as a template, should the need arise for a pit bridge to be made on any future productions.

Please feel free to edit this page should you see fit, and improve on the design of the pit bridge at your leisure. After all, it is a learning establishment!

NB: This design may change, depending on the level needed for the orchestra pit. Should this be the case, lengthen/shorten the scaff legs as necessary.

Steel deck: 1 x 8'x4', 1 x 4'x2'

Scaff:

6 x 600mm legs, 2 x 2000mm legs
