  • The Australia Stadium
    THE AUSTRALIA STADIUM SYDNEY’S OLYMPIC STADIUM HAS BEEN THE LARGEST Stadium Australia FACILITY IN THE HISTORY OF THE GAMES. TODAY, FOLLOWING A RE-STRUCTURING, IT IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE Capacity: 83,500, 81,500 (Oval) WORLD THAT CAN HOST FIVE DIFFERENT SPORTS AND STILL Opening: March 1999 IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW HIGH QUALITY DESIGN AND Capacity during the Olympics: 110,000 RESPECT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT CAN HAPPILY CO-EXIST. Cost: $ 690 million Australian Start of work construction: September 1996 Restructuring: From October 2001 to October 2003 Owner: Stadium Australia Group Project: Populous (Bligh Lobb Sports Architects) Hosted sports: Australian Rules football, rugby 13, rugby 15, football, cricket (Australia) THE LARGEST OLYMPIC STADIUM TO DATE Stadium Australia was built to host the 2000 Sydney Olympic and Paralympic Games. The facility is located in Sydney’s suburb of Homebush, in the middle of the Olympic Park of the Australian city. When it was inaugurated, due to its 110,000 seats, it immediately conquered the “largest Olympic stadium in the world” title and at the same time it is the largest in Australia. The structure was designed and built with the intent of respecting demanding environmental conditions: compared to other Olympic stadiums (Athens and Beijing), as an example, less steel was used. The construction was started in September 1996 and completed just two and a half years later: on March 6, 1999, Sydney’s Olympic Stadium saw its first sport event: two rugby13 matches watched by 104,583 spectators. From October 2001 to October 2003, Stadium Australia was refurbished to make it the only stadium in the world capable of hosting five different professional sports: Rugby13 league, Rugby15 (Union), Australian Football, Soccer and Cricket.

  • Jonathan C. Got Berlin Perspectives on Architecture 1 Olympiastadion
    Jonathan C. Got Berlin Perspectives on Architecture Olympiastadion – Germania and Beyond My personal interest with the Olymiastadion began the first week I arrived in Berlin. Having only heard about Adolf Hitler’s plans for a European Capital from documentaries and seen pictures of Jesse Owen’s legendary victories in the ill-timed 1936 Summer Olympics, I decided to make a visit myself. As soon as I saw the heavy stone colonnade from the car park I knew it could only have been built for one purpose – propaganda for the Third Reich beyond Germania. Remodelled for the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin by Hitler’s favorite architects Werner March (whose father, Otto March, designed the original 1913 stadium) and Albert Speer, the Olympiastadion was a symbol of power for the National Socialist party and an opportunity to present propaganda in the form of architecture. Being the westernmost structure on Hitler’s ‘capital city of the world’, the stadium was designed to present the then National Socialist Germany to the rest of the world as a power to be reckoned with. Any visitor to the stadium doesn’t only see the gigantic stadium, but also experiences the whole Olympic complex. Visitors would arrive at a 10-platform S-Bahn station able to serve at high frequencies for large events and then walk several hundred meters with a clear view of the huge imposing stone stadium as soon as visitors reached the car park. Though some might argue that neither the U- nor S-Bahn stations named after the stadium provided convenient access to the sports grounds, one has to consider the scale of the event.

  • The Beijing National Stadium
    THE BEIJING NATIONAL STADIUM THERE ARE MANY REASONS TO REMEMBER THE 2008 Area: 254,600 square meters OLYMPIC GAMES, AND ONE OF THESE IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE Track Provider: Mondo Spa IMPRESSIVE EVENTS BROADCASTED TO AUDIENCES Height: 69,2 meters AROUND THE WORLD FROM THE OLYMPIC STADIUM IN Start date of construction: December 24, 2003 BEIJING, A BUILDING UNIVERSALLY DUBBED WITH THE Cost of project: $423 million NICKNAME "THE BIRD'S NEST". Structural engineering: Arup Number of workers: 17,000 Steel used: 44,000 tons Capacity: 80,000/91,000 (2008 Olympic games) Olympic Editions (China) AN ARCHITECTURAL MIRACLE The reason for the name immediately strikes the eye : an intricate system of ties and a complex steel structure makes the building look like a huge nest, that can hold up to 91,000 spectators and has one of the world's fastest athletic tracks. The history of this architectural miracle began with an annoucement issued on December 19, 2002. On March 26, 2003 a team of international experts examined the proposals coming from all over the world. In April, the winner was announced: the swiss Herzog & De Meuron firm, which along with Arup Sport and the China Architecture Design & Research Group would deliver the full project in December 2007. Everything was perfect, up to the last details. On June 28, 2008 a grand opening ceremony drew the curtain on this colossal stage that would for about a month put the Chinese dragon under the worlds’ astonished eyes. THE MYTH Creating a building of this magnitude was not an easy task. In China everything is a symbol and a reference to the past and the National Stadium in Beijing was no different.

  • Amelioration De L'accessibilite Au Stade Marcel Michelin De Clermont-Ferrand Les Jours De Matchs
    AMELIORATION DE L’ACCESSIBILITE AU STADE MARCEL MICHELIN DE CLERMONT-FERRAND LES JOURS DE MATCHS VAUTRIN Antony Stage de découverte DA3 – 2013 - 2014 Tuteur : SERRHINI Kamal Amélioration de l’accessibilité au stade Marcel Michelin de 1 Clermont-Ferrand les jours de matchs AMELIORATION DE L’ACCESSIBILITE AU STADE MARCEL MICHELIN DE CLERMONT-FERRAND LES JOURS DE MATCHS VAUTRIN Antony Stage de découverte DA3 – 2013 - 2014 Tuteur : SERRHINI Kamal Amélioration de l’accessibilité au stade Marcel Michelin de 2 Clermont-Ferrand les jours de matchs Avertissement Le PIND est un premier test qui permet à l’élève ingénieur de s’évaluer (et d’être évalué par les enseignants), de prendre conscience des connaissances acquises mais également de la marge de progression et des éléments qui lui restent à acquérir. Le PIND est un espace de liberté (le seul dans la formation) qui mesure la motivation de l’élève ingénieur pour l’aménagement. Le PIND est un exercice qui doit permettre de problématiser un sujet en s’appuyant sur des recherches bibliographiques, d’élaborer un diagnostic orienté et d’émettre des propositions. Amélioration de l’accessibilité au stade Marcel Michelin de 3 Clermont-Ferrand les jours de matchs Remerciements Je tiens à remercier toutes les personnes qui ont répondu à mes questions et qui ont prêté attention à mon sujet durant la période de sa réalisation. Tout d’abord, je souhaite remercier mon tuteur de stage, Mr SERRHINI Kamal, pour le temps qu’il m’a accordé en rendez-vous, pour les réponses apportées à mes questions diverses et variées et pour m’avoir fait avancer efficacement dans mon projet.
