CAD Services

Create an Accurate Roadmap for Your Project with Precise and Detailed Computer Drawings

Executing the perfect production begins with accurately mapping out the details. In any place where a production will occur, there are multiple considerations that must be thought out well in advance of the show date. This can best be accomplished only after an accurate floor plan is created. CAD drawings are an essential roadmap for all stakeholders involved in putting together your event or production. These precise drawings can help signal obstructions and partitions, exits, ceiling heights, and virtually every other important spatial detail for the designers, planners, production partners, and guests.

Infrastructure & Venue Preparation

PRG understands that all scenic elements not only have visual design requirements but also must function flawlessly to completely realize the designer’s vision. PRG Scenic works closely with our clients to address the structural issues integral to the scenic elements themselves but also the infrastructure requirements for safe and precise installation the set into the physical space itself. Whether freestanding, rigged or requiring of more extensive venue preparation PRG’s team of project managers, technical supervisors and engineers have the experience and knowledge to ensure that scenery transports and loads-in as planned.

Portals and Prosceniums - we have the capabilities to address the structural needs as well as the finish work required for even the most intricate or ornate of pieces.

Structures and Armatures – we understand the unique nature of supporting scenic elements, even large, complicated pieces that have to move. Our team of welders, carpenters and technical designers can solve the support challenges of scenic pieces, props and full sets, whether installed or touring.

Structural Steel – for applications that need heavy-duty support, we can design, engineer, supply and install structural steel for either temporary or permanent applications. With in-house engineering and technical designers we can go into a theatre in advance of a production and provide structural support for winches, catwalks or hanging points for rigging. We add value to the production by solving structural problems that they encounter in different spaces.
