Engineer's note

Tom Jeffcoat

Temporary stages need to handle huge loads, shifting weather, and tight build times - all while looking effortless. Our job was to make sure each structure could take the pressure, stay safe, and meet the demands of a live environment.

Constraint

Temporary structures, public safety and compressed build windows.

MJC role

Structural Engineer

Output

Design checks, inspection notes and sign-off documentation.

Project summary

What the brief was — and what we delivered.

MJC provided structural design reviews, load assessments and on-site engineering for temporary stage structures at J2 Festival.

Temporary live-event brief

Five bespoke stage structures were planned across the festival site. Each needed to support creative production requirements while meeting UK safety standards for temporary outdoor structures.

MJC's scope

  • Structural design reviews for all five stages.
  • Load assessments including crowd loading, equipment and wind exposure.
  • Foundation design with ballast and screw pile solutions.
  • On-site engineering support during construction.
  • Final sign-off documentation for live use.

Outcome

The festival ran successfully with temporary infrastructure that gave organisers, performers and audiences confidence in the structures supporting the show.
