Installation Theatrical Engineering (ITE)

Installation Theatrical Engineering (ITE), experts in stage machinery and audiovisual solutions, brought their expertise to the state-of-the-art South Australian Sports Institute (SASI). Known for enhancing performance spaces in theatres, schools, and universities, ITE showcased its 44 years of experience with this exciting project.

A dedicated team of eight from ITE’s 30 employees were on the ground to install a cutting-edge motorised truss grid. This setup supports lighting and cameras, which are crucial for training sessions and live performances.

Additionally, ITE installed a motorised concertina curtain to separate the movement studio from the gym, along with motorised sports nets for the bounding track, making the space more versatile.

“The motorised concertina curtain was a tricky part of the project,”said ITE Director Jon Agosta. “We had to get the sizing just right and ensure the logo was perfectly sewn onto the curtain. The grid design, with its multiple motors, was also a complex task. We needed to carefully size each component, motor, and brake to ensure everything works seamlessly.”
This project highlights ITE’s knack for tackling tough engineering challenges while delivering functional and visually appealing results.

ITE’s current other major projects include work at the Australian War Memorial, Ruyton Girls School, University of NSW Footbridge Theatre, and Wellington Town Hall Redevelopment.
