Melbourne Cricket Ground, also known as “The G”, is one of the largest stadium in the world has hosted major events and remembered as the centerpiece stadium of the 1956 Summer Olympics, the 2006 Commonwealth Games and two Cricket World Cups: 1992 and 2015.

Alfasi was engaged as the steel contractor from an early stage to assist in design development. Alfasi then supplied and installed 4,500 tons of steel for the bowl and roof including architectural cables, masts, backstays, glazing frames, cable net and bowl structure and raking beams to support seating plats.

The construction of this stand was carried out with the constraints of an operating stadium and as such the staging and methodology were paramount to the successful delivery of the structure
