【 摘 要 】

The planning for major international sporting events such as the Olympic Games and Commonwealth Games require the use of a range of Field of Play facilities. Often these are required to be temporary overlay installations due to the cost of constructing new standalone facilities. The planning for the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games included the construction of several permanent new build facilities that would be retained as legacies for the Gold Coast and Brisbane regions. The games will also include several temporary overlay Field of Play facilities; these are the competition and warm-up athletics track and field and the beach volleyball facilities. The design of such temporary overlay sites need to ensure the construction adheres with the governing sport body as well as providing quick and economical construction methodology. This paper provides an overview of the design for the temporary Field of Play facilities.
