Angle Frame Bleachers

Available in elevated and non-elevated versions, All Star Bleachers' permanent angle frame bleachers offer maximum strength and low maintenance cost. Angle Frame bleachers are either attached to a concrete foundation or can be anchored using earth anchors. All units must be anchored to meet wind load requirements and require a level site. This seating option also gives the freedom of expansion as seating needs grow.

Non-elevated bleachers are designed so that those seated on the first row place their feet on the ground. Non-elevated bleachers are typically the most affordable option.

Ramps are required for ADA compliance on elevated bleachers. Ramp configurations are typically referred to by a letter shape; L ramp, S ramp, U ramp, and straight ramp. The maximum slope for ramps is 1" on 12" and must have a level surface after 30' of slope, some ramps are 1" on 20", and do not require a level landing. Companion seats are required for every one wheelchair space provided (Source: ICC 300-2007).

Picket guardrail and chain link fence are common options for enclosing bleachers with heights that exceed 30". Any opening between components (footboards, seat boards, risers, or guardrails) above a 30" height should prevent passage of a 4-inch sphere to grade (Source: ICC 300-2007). Guardrail or fence heights should be at 42" above seats. Finish options for picket rail include mill finish and powder coating. Galvanized and vinyl chain link fence are also available. Aluminum and poly closure panels are often used to provide a finished, clean look to the base of bleachers and grandstands.

Front walkways are typically elevated in 6" increments beginning at 30" up to 60". Center walkways are typically required for bleachers that are 21 rows or higher (Source: ICC 300-2007).

Dimensions and design options vary depending on the project and facility requirements. The most common length for press boxes is 6 feet; however, standard sizes include 18', 24', 30, and 36'. The depths of press boxes are typically 8' or 10' deep. Design options include standard or slanted windows, filming platforms, and inclined platform wheelchair lifts. Press boxes are required to be designed to meet local wind loads and ADA access to a press box may be required per local codes.
