Rising majestically from the Kazakhastan steppe, the Khan Shatyr Entertainment Centre is thought to be the world’s largest tent - a vast, soaring surface of ETFE-captured air enclosing a temperate oasis for the people of Astana. Kazakhstan’s new showpiece capital experiences harsh extremes of climate with temperatures ranging from -40°C to + 40°C and the Entertainment Centre, situated at one end of the city’s main axis, provides a much needed place to meet, socialise and shop, alongside more exotic attractions such as an indoor beach and pool. This paper presents some of the challenges faced in both the design and construction of this large structure in such inhospitable conditions. |
