Melbourne New Stadium Uses Bio Frame Roof

Description

The new Melbourne Rectangular Stadium for 31,000 spectators incorporates environmental features, such as rainwater harvesting and an ingenious bio-frame roof design, which uses around 50% less steel than an equivalent cantilevered roof. The new stadium may reduce use of potable water by up to 95%. Additional eco-friendly features include a building automation system to minimise power use and low-VOC carpet and paints.
