Budapest\u2019s iconic T\u00fcskecsarnok <\/a>required the refurbishment of the service walkway, lighting and sound systems located above the arena. We were commissioned to design the new solution and support the construction works.<\/p>\n\n

Our scope included designing and scheduling the dismantling of the existing service walkway, designing the new maintenance walkway and finally supporting construction through the simulation of demolition and reconstruction processes.<\/p>\n\n

Our work was reviewed and supported by Dr. Antal L\u00e1z\u00e1r<\/a>, the original architect of the building.<\/p>\n\n

The project<\/h2>\n\n

The internal refurbishment of T\u00fcskecsarnok became necessary because the available clear height was insufficient for certain types of events. The existing lighting bridge was largely unused due to its excessive dead load, the lighting conditions did not meet the requirements of television broadcasting for all sports, and the sound system had also become outdated. <\/p>\n\n

The National Sports Centres therefore decided to dismantle the service walkway and associated lighting fixtures beneath the roof structure and replace them with a redesigned structure incorporating new lighting and sound systems. The new maintenance walkway was positioned between the members of the existing space-frame roof structure. This required verification of the load-bearing capacity of the existing roof. Structural calculations and design were prepared using the original structural documentation of the arena, with the involvement of MTM M\u00e9rn\u00f6kiroda Kft. <\/p>\n\n

Several aspects of the project made the construction process both hazardous and difficult to plan, while also requiring a very tight programme:<\/p>\n\n
