This stadium is built from good and selected materials to make this building tough and long lasting resistant for all disaster. By 2010, 80 000 cubic metres of concrete will have been poured, 9000 tons of reinforcing steel would have been placed and 8000 tons of structural steel will have been erected. The steel is also has international standard for its quality. This, in combination with the moving of approximately 120 000 cubic meters of soil, fine architecture and dedicated efforts in the design offices and on site, will result in Soccer City being transformed into one of the most striking, impressive and well-equipped stadiums in the world. This stadium is very glorious and prestigious since it has wonderful design that is based on idea of the luxurious sport. The existing structural concrete profile of the two suite levels and upper tier are extended all round to encircle the pitch. This stadium is completed with nice and comfortable seats so that the supporters can enjoy the games. The pot’s façade is made up of fiber reinforced concrete panels, in a selection of 8 colors and 2 textures that reference the shades and textures of the calabash. The facade has artistic and modern design. The upper roof, which is cantilevered from an enormous triangular spatial ring truss, is covered by a PTFE membrane in a color similar to that of mine-dump sand. This stadium has green grass that has international standard.
