Cable Erection of Krasnodar Stadium Suspended Roof

The Krasnodar Stadium, hosting FC Krasnodar of Russian Premier League, has a capacity of 36.260 seats. The stadium roof is designed as a typical looped cable roof containing two compression rings and one tension ring. The roof is covered by a folded membrane, the inner perimeter towards the pitch is built as a 7m wide glass roof to improve the natural lighting of the pitch. The radial cables run along 56 axes from compression to tension rings. All cables forming the tension ring are connected by couplers, thus creating round cables. Redaelli took part in the project providing the supply, installation and big lift of 416 steel ropes, for a total mass of 500 tons including sockets and cast ring connectors.
