KRASNODAR STADIUM

Krasnodar Stadium, home of Russian Premier League team FC Krasnodar, has a capacity of 36,260 seats. The stadium roof is designed as a cable net roof made up of two outer steel compression rings and one interior cable tension ring. The roof is covered by a membrane material with the inner perimeter towards the pitch is built using a 7m glazed roof to improve the natural lighting to the pitch.

The radial cables run on 56 axes from compression to tension rings. All cables forming the tension ring are connected by couplers, thus creating round cables. Teufelberger-Redaelli took part in the project providing the supply, installation and synchronised “big lift” of 416 steel cables – a total weight of 500t including sockets and cast ring connectors. Despite the complexity of such a large building site, extreme weather conditions and the challenge of several concurring site activities, great precision controlled each stage of the cable installation and tensioning.
