    Aayushi Pansara
    The Miami Marine Stadium was built in 1963 in Virginia Key, Miami, Florida. It featured a unique cantilevered folded plate concrete roof structure spanning 99.5 meters, which was the largest unsupported concrete roof at the time. The stadium sat on 970,000 square meters of land and water and was designed by architects Hilario Candela and Eduardo Toroja using a hyperbolic paraboloid shell roof structure consisting of eight thin shell units joined together. The unique folded plate roof structure balanced the large cantilevered spans through a system of tension and compression members.

    • Roof consists of eight thin shell
    structural units. Each unit - four
    hyperbolic paraboloid shells
    monolithically joined together along a
    center line to form a v shaped cross
    section.

    • Each v-shaped unit is 12.4m wide,


    30.7m long (20.2m cantilever plus
    10.5m back span) and height- 7.6 m at
    cantilever and 2.9 m at back.

    • V-shaped unit supported by 3 inclined


    columns- 2 at back and 1 at interior.

    • Folds joined via keyed joint filled with


    concrete grout which contain steel
    weld tabs with prevent relative
    translation between adjacent folds.
    Scaffolding and the formwork reflecting the straight-line generators of
    the hyperbolic paraboloid forms.
    Doubly curved span made from concrete

    These act as tie beams and hold the roof structure through tension
    8 units joined together makes the v shaped units and the lower beams act as
    tie beams that hold the roof structure
    Region in tension
    This forms a form active structure
    Region in compression
    System of girder beams balances large cantilevered hyperbolic roof. Spaced at 6.3 m at center,
    girder beams transfer the loads of grandstand. Girder keeps stadium forces in compression.
