With only 6 Days to go for the FIFA WorldCup 2018, the incredible stadiums built for this mega event are all spruced up and ready! The stadium constructions made the most use of Russian Steel, with the country even opening new steel plants.
One of the stadiums used 8,000 tonnes of steel to build its translucent roof. In addition, many of the stadiums have used flexible steel frames to allow the venues to be transformed and used for other purposes after the World Cup. This ensures ongoing sustainability of the stadiums. The VTB Arena that can be configured into a 45,000-capacity stadium from a 27,000-capacity stadium, is only one such example.
Cutting-edge engineering concepts have been used to build these transformable structures, keeping the modern shift towards sustainability and recycling in mind. Good things do happen with Steel!
