Wildeck, Inc., a material handling equipment manufacturer, will design and manufacture structural steel platforms (mezzanines) for the upcoming 2024 Republican National Convention (RNC) on July 15-18 at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In partnership with Morrison Company, a systems integrator in the material handling and storage industry, Wildeck has delivered two custom-designed platforms to support the media suites and additional smaller platforms for TV camera equipment. The media suite platforms, 975 ft2 and 1,450 ft2 in size, were designed to fit within the shape of the arena bowl, while the camera platforms were engineered with high rigidity to ensure stable televised coverage. Morrison Company and Wildeck has a history of similar projects, including the 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland. Wildeck’s platforms for the event were manufactured using U.S. steel, and local union labor was employed for the installation.
