Why go to all the trouble of organizing an event just to have it ruined by poor seating? Unsatisfactory seating conditions are listed below:

1. Spectators are uncomfortable on rough wood planks, or wet because it rained on the wooden seats that act like sponges and can't be dried; good seating helps spectators stay
dry, enjoy the event and they are more likely to return next year, with a friend. It's a growth strategy.

2. An accident. Seating which does not meet the Building Code represent a hazard to spectators, especially children. Why risk an injury or a law suit? Your insurance company may not cover you if you were negligent in contracting sub-standard seating. What then?

3. Risk of catastrophe from fire: Wooden bleachers which have no fire protection have been the cause of catastrophes in the past, especially at indoor venues.

4. Inadequate fastening devices such a bent nails to hold down wooden seats.

Quick Sit Bleacher's substructure is made of steel, and the floor boards and seats are made of pultruded fibreglass with a Class 1 fire rating. They will not support combustion.

Our fibreglass seats neither conduct warmth from your bottom, like aluminum nor do they absorb moisture. If they are wet, you simply wipe them off.

Our system has been engineered to meet or exceed the National Fire Prevention Act ( NFPA, Sec 102) and the National Building Code. There is no opening in our seats that is greater than 4 inches.

We use a locking pin to ensure that no joint or seat or floor board can inadvertently become unfastened.

Below are some examples of poorly constructed bleachers being used in Alberta that exhibit the failings discussed above:

uneven aisle & steps = unsafe	horizontal guard rails = unsafe
openings large enough for a child to fall through = unsafe	nail fasteners=unsafe
Would you feel comfortable and safe? Would you seat your children in these stands?

Choose comfort, safety and the best sight lines.

At Quick Sit, every seating project adheres to the National Building Code standards. The Code plays a vital role in helping to address important issues including safety, reliability, energy efficiency, durability and economy.

All requirements in the 2005 NBC are linked to one or more of the following four top-level objectives:
...............................................................•Safety
...............................................................•Health
...............................................................•Accessibility
...............................................................•Fire and Structural Protection of Buildings

The code is developed by the National Research Council (NRC), covering construction safety and performance related issues. NRC operates a national code centre that supports the development of the National Building Code and other national model codes on which construction regulation across Canada is based. These codes rely on technical requirements contained in many CSA construction standards.

We rely on CSA construction standards to provide critical and innovative information for the design, manufacture and choice of supplies and distributors.

These construction standards cover: products and materials,
applications, such as test methods, welding, construction processes, the design of structures using specific materials (such as aluminum and steel), and the design of structures such as grandstands and other related structures (such as observation towers).
