Abstrakt:

In the course of the last 25 years the City of Singapore, due to its rapidly increasing population, has built sixteen so-called 'satellite cities,' which now cover practically the entire island. In the northern part of Singapore, at the end station of the rapid transit line Singapore-Yishun, a new sports complex was erected consisting of an indoor and an outdoor stadium. Since aesthetics was given significant importance on the design of the sports complex, the architect decided to use a cable-stayed roof design. In total, three roofs of different sizes dominate the sports complex. Two cover the indoor stadium and one covers the tribune seating of the outdoor stadium. The suspended tubular steel roof structures consist of triangular parabolic-shaped steel trusses forming a pleasing mix of plane and spatial frames.
