The aim of this master's thesis is to analyse recent developments
in the design of stadia. In particular, the aim to make stadia
adaptable in terms of use led to new challenges for the structural
design. On one side, in order to increase event days per year,
there are multi-purpose stadia for various sports, as well as for
non-sporting events. Movable structures for seating tiers, pitches,
and roofs developed for stadia that are suitable for various
events. The design of these structures is discussed in this thesis.
On the other side, major events require stadia with pre-determined
capacities, which may be unsuitable for a long-term use. For this
purpose, demountable structures for spectator accommodation are
used to increase the capacity just temporary for the duration of a
major event. Furthermore, general concepts for the structural
design of stands and roofs are discussed. In addition, case studies
of recent developments for major events, multi-purpose stadia, and
stadia in the UK are analysed. Due to a study in the UK, there are
British guidelines discussed in this thesis.
