Guidance for stadium designers published

A new publication entitled Stadium and Arena Design that provides guidance and detailed technical information on all aspects of the planning, design, operation and maintenance of stadiums is now available.

The book should be of interest to British Constructional Steelwork Association members and all designers and specifers involved in steel construction as the publication contains a chapter on ‘steel in stadium engineering.’

Edited by Peter Culley and John Pascoe, both of whom have many years experience in structural engineering and steel construction, the publication recognises the importance of the multidisciplinary approach required to design, build and run modern international stadiums and arenas.

Bringing together a broad range of knowledge from specialists in each of the key areas of stadium design, Stadium and Arena Design provides up-to-date practical guidance for professionals in the field, researchers and students.

Building on the success of the award-winning Stadium Engineering, this second edition has been fully updated for the contemporary demands of the sporting facilities industry.

There are contributions from across the industry and a wide range of case studies including Wimbledon Centre Court, Beijing Olympic Stadium and the Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in the United Arab Emirates.

Stadium and Arena Design is £95 and available online from www.icebookshop.com or email: orders@icepublishing.com
