LASK Raiffeisen Arena, Linz

The conversion of the existing stadium grounds into the LASK Arena consists of the extensive demolition and new construction of the central stadium body. The new building impresses with its unique form, which optimally takes into account the boundary conditions from the neighbouring buildings. The roof structure is planned as a steel framework, the load-bearing prefabricated grandstand elements are largely made of prefabricated concrete elements, whereby great attention is paid to the structural design of the connecting details. With spans of over ten metres, the grandstand elements made of pre-stressed prefabricated elements place high demands on planning and execution. Piles are used to support the high column loads.
