Stadium La Montura, Chile

A roof made of steel and fabric membranes was designed for the soccer stadium in San Bernardo, a city in the south of Santiago. The elegant, curved design in lightweight construction now also covers the standing area.

Structure

The main structural elements, such as arches and bracing curve members, are made of steel and have a total span of 73.5 m (241 ft) between the concrete pile supports. The cladding system consists of a series of tensioned fabric membranes with a width of 3.2 m (10.5 ft), which span a length of 7 m to 13 m (23 ft to 42.7 ft) and are surrounded by corner cables.

This roofing system creates a transparent picture of the roof while protecting spectators from the effects of the weather.
