The atmosphere of preparation for the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2 is spreading throughout the capital.
According to Lao Dong on August 10, at Ba Dinh Square, Hanoi, many groups of workers are working hard on key items, notably the giant grandstand system with a capacity of up to 30,000 seats, serving delegates, guests and people during the country's major festival.
Through observation, the stands are arranged along the sidewalk of Doc Lap Street, towards the Mausoleum of President Ho Chi Minh and divided into 4 main areas.
Each area is scientifically designed to optimize visibility, ensuring solemnity and absolute safety.
Surrounding the area is a banner fence about 3m high to separate the construction site from traffic routes, ensuring progress and construction safety as well as safety for vehicles moving through this area.
Notably, the load-bearing scaffolding system is installed into a 5-storey structure, creating a solid foundation for the entire stands. This is an item that has been carefully invested in both technique and aesthetics, reflecting the importance of the event.
At the construction site, many construction teams are being deployed simultaneously. Materials such as steel, seats, audio and lighting equipment have been fully assembled.
Along with that, the central stand, the light pole system, loudspeaker, large LED screen... were also urgently completed, creating a space that is both modern and solemn.
