3.3 LITERATURE STUDY ON ALLIANZRIVIERA, NICE.

3.3.1 INTRODUCTION

• Period of construction: 2010-2012

• Architects: Wilmott and Associaes

• Style of Architecture: Modernism • Seating: 35,0000(Match day) o The ESPRIT Arena is a football stadium that has a compact, ‘cauldronshaped’ form that would reinforce the urban plan. The main materials used in construction are:

o ETFE o Wood o Reinforced Concrete o Steel frames

• The architectural parti was transparency: eliminating the distinction between inside and outside, providing views, and making the stadium glow at night.

43 SITE IMAGE

3.3.2 SURROUNDING LAND-USE

• The site is located in a mixed-use location beside the French Riviera.

• The location beside the affluent residential areas allows the stadium to assert it’s identity. • There is a fair amount of green areas on the site. • It’s located by the 45M wide National Highway.

3.3.3 SITE PLAN& ACCESS

• The site includes three projects to be built in a seismic zone, each with a different completion date: • A stadium with 3,000 seats, multi-purpose facilities (sports and concerts),

UEFA approved, well-integrated with its urban environment, and in line with sustainable development principles • • the Musée National du Sport (National Sports Museum) • V• a real estate development plan (PIA) including 29,000m² of retail space designed to animate the area

44 SITE PLAN

3.3.4 PLANNING AND CIRCULATION

• the Allianz-Riviera Stadium occupies a strategic position within the Eco

Valley project. Responding to the programme’s first requirement - integration within the Eco Valley landscape - Wilmotte & Associés designed a stadium with an undulating form, evoking the flight of a bird.

• With the goal of constructing a slice of the city, Wilmotte & Associates designed a compact, ‘cauldron-shaped’ stadium that would reinforce the urban plan. A network of public spaces and bike paths aligns with the existing urban fabric and roadways. • The car parks are located beneath the building complex, leaving space for gardens and landscaping that connect the complex with the rest of the city.

45 SECTION

3.3.5 SECTIONS AND SITTER DETAILS

• Wilmotte & Associés paid special attention to the stadium’s ‘skin’ which animates both the interior and exterior of the building. The architectural parti was transparency: eliminating the distinction between inside and outside, providing views, and making the stadium glow at night. • This concept is achieved with the space frame structure, clad with a transparent membrane (ETFE). By day this envelope brings in diffuse natural light, and by night it makes the stadium glow.

• The structure is visible from the exterior: there is a play of light and shadow between the ETFE and the wooden lattice.

46 STRUCTURE

• The lightweight, airy, and luminous silhouette of the building owes much to this membrane that is set off the structure by metal braces. Acting like a protective veil, the membrane sometimes shelters and sometimes opens the stadium up to its surroundings • . From the motorway, the stadium’s closed facade accentuates the iconic presence of the impressive facility. The veil lifts slightly on two sides, opening onto the concourse to welcome the spectators.

• This openness, reinforced on the building envelope by the numerous views framing the landscape, contributes to the spectator’s comfort and wellbeing: the relationship between inside and outside can be felt from every point of the stadium.

3.3.6 GREEN FEATURES

• The Allianz Riviera is a true model of eco-design and eco-construction, with the implementation of innovative technologies, constituting one of the first eco-stadiums in the world.

•AIR

The Allianz Riviera is the first stadium to be equipped with a natural ventilation system that channels the winds of the plain of Var.

SUN

•The central photovoltaic is made up of more than 4,000 panels solar panels (around 7 000 m²) of European manufacture.

•WOOD

This construction, which combines wood and metal, and offers a savings of 3,000 tonnes of carbon when manufacturing compared to a conventional structure.

3.4 LITERATURESTUDY ESPRITARENA,NICE.

3.4.1 INTRODUCTION

• The Düsseldorf Arena was constructed over a two-year period between 2002 and 2004 in order to replace Fortuna’s previous home ground, Rheinstadion. • Dating as far back as 1925, Rheinstadion was steeped in history having hosted matches of the 1974 World Cup and 1988 Euros, however it featured a problematic athletics track and was slowly becoming dilapidated. • Costing a reported €240 million, the arena features a fully retractable roof similar to that of Millennium Stadium and Amsterdam Arena and was originally capable of accommodating 51,500. • After some sections of seating were converted to terraces in the Summer of 2010, the capacity increased to 54,600, and for concerts Esprit Arena can welcome up to 66,500 revellers.

4. SITE SELECTION &ANALYSIS

4.1 SITELOCATION

•The site has been chosen by the DDA for the development of a football stadium of capacity 40,000.It is surrounded by recreational, residential and commercial uses nearby as the master-plan suggests.

54 SITE LOCATION

55 SITE LOCATION

4.2 SITEDETAILS

Site area: 60.3 acres

Site owner: state govt. Of Delhi Location: Sector 19, Dwarka, New Delhi Coordinates: 28°34'16.5"n 77°03'00.2"e

Average elevation: 213m Nearest railway station: 1.5kms (metro station) Nearest airport: IGI airport-6kms Surrounding site North: St. Mary’s school East: commercial building West: AIFF building, empty plots South: najafgarh drain

4.3 SURROUNDINGLAND-USEANALYSIS

•The site comes under zone K2 which has been envisioned to remove the burden in the heart of the city. The AIFF building is next to it. A Diplomatic Enclave has been proposed next to it.

4.4 SITEDIMENSIONS

4.5 DEVELOPMENTCONTROL

The development of Dwarka in 10 years has been explosive and a stadium would only enhance the amenities available to the tenants of the surrounding area.

4.6 SITEPOTENTIAL

The site is located in such an area that it can be utilized by the large no. of people due to connectivity. Reahing the site wouldn’t be a problem due to the many modes of transportation available. Since the main road of width 45M runs towards the east side, the main road can be situated along. The service road runs along the main road.

4.7 EXISTINGVEGETATION

There isn’t much vegetation on the site except few shrubs and trees which is marked below.

The site has no existing buildings or structures. Surrounding areas only have green spaces in the areas shown in the masterplan.

4.8 SITESERVICES

ELECTRIC SUPPLY: •There is an electric line running along the boundary of the site which can be used for powering the stadium by providing the adequate substation/transformer.

WATER & DRAINAGE SYSTEM: •There is no provision of water by the municipal authorities. The pipeline runs along the main road. So water supply can be taken for the site from there. • The drainage can be discharged along the Najafgarh drain situated along the

south of the site.

4.9 CLIMATICANALYSIS

•The climate of Delhi is a monsoon influenced subtropical with heavy variations during summer and winter. •Climatic Zone: Sub-Tropical • Hot&Dry: upto 450 •Cool&Dry: upto 250 •Warm&humid upto 350

5. AREA ANALYSIS& DESIGN REQUIREMENTS

6. DESIGN PROPOSAL

Different types of stadiums along history were studied and how their function changed from a simple structure for footraces into ever larger venues for mass entertainment. Stadiums continue to push the limits of technology and aesthetics and serve as powerful tools for political and artistic statements—and profit.

Accessbility is a key factor in deciding whether a stadium reaches the green goal for transport. There are green areas throughout the site in small and large parcels. Since the site is located in Delhi, green areas would be necessary.

The structure adopted here is a truss system for the basic core structure and a fabric cladding with vibrant colours to make the stadium entering experience even more colourfoul and joyous.

Green Features are present throughout the stadium.

7. DRAWINGS AND DESIGN SHEETS

8. CONCLUSION

By this Thesis we can conclude that stadiums can be critical mass capable of sustaining city life: a critical mass containing the residential, commercial, retail, leisure and transport components which encourage cities to thrive. The main challenge while designing a stadium is to improve the urban vicinity of the area, to make them living parts of entire cities. Today, major sporting facilities are a mainstay of urban regeneration and their potential has been recognized. However, a stadium alone will not transform a blighted area; it must be a part of an overall plan to attract commercial and recreational activities.

And most importantly, people.
