Absen PL2.5 Plus V2	2.5 mm	36 x 14 = 504	18 x 7 m	7200 x 2800	3,931 kg / 8,667 lb	80.6 kW, 388 A @ 208 V

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.

Seating estimate

After a 12 x 7 m stage, Century North holds about 822 theater seats, 336 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 231 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 15.6 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
