Cantilevered stands carry round arena's long-span roof
Reinforced concrete girders cantilever up to 20 ft beyond concrete columns to support long-span roof of Bayfront Center Arena in St. Petersburg, Fla; this type of construction allowed circular roof 280 ft in diam to extend beyond base of building that is 245 ft wide; radial steel trusses to span 280-ft diam arena were selected to keep depth of roof members small because height of roof was restricted.
