With constant communication required between KÖZTI and the external structural engineers, there were many changes to accommodate quickly, particularly when the project needed to be completely re-designed due to both budgetary and structural constraints.
To communicate clearly, share all relevant information with every sub-discipline involved, and ensure that the design intent was easily communicated and understood by everyone who interacted with the project required open BIM software solutions.Īllplan was used for the structural engineering, as well as the reinforcement design. There were many external parties to coordinate – including 30 contractors and over 200 people.
The 65,000-seat Puskás Aréna project was challenging due to the scale, the complexity of combining the historic structure with the new building, and the amount of data created. © Palkó György with courtesy of KÖZTI Architects & Engineers This prestigious award is given to recognize European projects that are defining works of modern urban development thanks to their architectural quality and cultural significance. In fact, the unique arena was chosen as one of the candidates for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture, the Mies van der Rohe Award.
Now, the completed structure is now a striking and integral part of the Budapest cityscape. With a floor area of 208,000 square meters, the large stadium took three years to design, and a further three years to build, with the client mandating the use of BIM for the project. Standing 52 meters high, the arena is a combination of parts of the previous Ferenc Puskás Stadium as well as a new, modern building and sports facilities. The Puskás Arena is the largest and most modern multifunctional sports facility in Central Europe. After experiencing the efficiencies of Building Information Modeling (BIM), 3D modeling, and IFC data formats, they fully embraced the digital way of working – and have not looked back.
For the construction of the iconic Puskás Aréna in Budapest, Hungary in 2013, KÖZTI took the next step towards digital design with open BIM software solutions, including Allplan. KÖZTI Architects & Engineers is one of the oldest design firms in Hungary yet has been using digital solutions since the mid-1990s.
