The Gerland stadium was build in 1920. It has been modified several times. For the football world cup of 1998 the city of Lyon made a competition to have a project for making the transformation of the old stadium to get it in conformity with the football world cup rules. To obtain the total capacity requested of 44000 spectators, it was decided to create the new grandstand with two superposed levels. This new grandstand had to be completely covered by a membrane structure. The total surface for one roof is about 4200 sqm. The membrane is realised in 7 pieces: (i) 5 main parts between the 6 main steel frames, and (ii) 2 little lateral parts. Each main element of membrane is made of 96 pieces of fabric connected together by high frequency welding. Each element having an area of a about 800 sqm. is connected to the steel structure: (i) on the four edges by plates and screws, and (ii) on the arches by cables. Uplift forces are retained by 6 valley cables. To obtain the exact final size of each panel of fabric, cutting pattern has been made with compensation coefficient of 0,4 % in warp direction and 0,7 % in weft direction. Main dimensions for one roof are: overall length 100 m, overall width 45 m, maximum height 27 m, distance between two main beams 22 m, total covered area 4200 sqm., total weight of complete steel structure (grandstand + roof) 1200 tonnes, weight of the steel structure for the roof 350 tonnes, weight of the heaviest beam 45 tonnes, and maximum stresses in cables 4400 kN.
