The cladding of the two-storey
stylobate and of the overhang above
consists of lightweight wall panels and
brick.
The 78x66 m roof of the multisports
hall is supported by suspended
diagonal trusses with parallel tension
chords. These rest on steel cantilevers.
An acoustical and decorative ceiling is
suspended from the lower chord of
the trusses, as are sound and ventillation
equipment and the hoisting
machinery of the stage.
The large-span roof of the arena,
which is of an unequal height all over,
saved a lot of metal.
