Arenas + Stadiums
Design and construction of arenas and stadiums require unique capabilities. The design requires a marriage of aesthetics with the structure, a partnership between the architect and the structural engineer. Significant costs and schedule delays can be incurred if the design is not integrated and does not facilitate construction. Further, arena and stadia roofs are long span structures. Design and construction of long span structures demands unique knowledge and experience.

Ruby+Associates has performed structural analysis and/or design for a number of arenas and stadiums and has met these challenges consistently. We often are retained by our peers to review their design packages of these structures for completeness and constructability.
