Wembley stadium with a seating capacity of 90,000 is now the largest football stadium in the world with every seat under cover. After the modelling and drawing, report and CNC production phases, Tekla Structures was used as an analysis tool, examining the different construction stages of the project, utilising data imported from Excel, and then visually indicating the progress of activities.
The construction of the stadium used 215,000 tonnes of concrete and approximately 23,000 tonnes of steel. The famous twin towers of the original Wembley stadium were replaced with a spectacular 133 metre high arch, which towers over the 52 metre high stadium.
