CASE STUDY: THE ROYAL DUBLIN SOCIETY

摘要

STRI's Director of Operations, Richard Hayden, re-constructed The Royal Dublin Society (RDS) main arena in 2009 with the concept in mind of creating a multi-purpose venue.Throughout the winter.The RDS is home to the rugby Heineken Cup champions Leinster, whereas in the summer months there are concerts as well as the internationally renowned Dublin Horse Show.With increasing expectations from international show jumping competitors and particularly demanding courses, the RDS brief was to produce a world class surface for the Dublin Horse Show and enhance the reputation of the RDS as a premier venue on the show jumping calendar.The RDS is a long standing client of STRI and a hands-on approach to the project was taken, with STRI consultants remaining on-site for the duration, working alongside Liam Mulligan, the RDS head groundsman, to produce a world class surface.
