THE BRANDYWINE
THE BRANDYWINE amphitheater with its extended coverage gives this pavilion its mult- functional usage. It is ideal for stage performances as well as a sheltered pavilion for seated events and gatherings. The design, with its pressure treated laminated wood open-knee arches services events both large and small. As with all of EnWood’s amphitheaters, the Brandywine pavilion is manufactured with #1 grade Southern Yellow Pine lumber. To assure long-term service and low maintenance, all wood components are fabricated with pressure treated lumber, and all steel base shoes, connectors, and hardware are galvanized

DESIGN LOADS
- 12 pounds per square foot dead load
- 30 pounds per square foot live load
- 20 pounds per square foot wind load. (Equates to 100 MPH)
The typical design load allows for:
There are variables that affect the design sizes of the members, specifically the columns and the curved beams, and those variables generally include live load conditions that are usually location specific. Building Codes normally dictate the applicable loads to be applied in the member size designs.
PRESSURE PRESERVATIVE TREATMENT
As noted in the component list above, the wood columns are fabricated with lumber pressure treated (prior to gluing) with CCA, at .6 pcf (6 tenths of a pound of preservative per cubic foot of wood) retention for “ground contact”. Fascia boards are treated with MCA or CCA,all the treatment per AITC 109. The treated glulam can be stained and painted.
