The Pune Cricket Stadium is a cricket arena located near the city of Pune in the state of Maharashtra, India.
The stadium was designed by British firm Hopkins Architects and built in 2010-2011.
The stadium can host as many as 37,400 people and offers spectacular view over the surrounding mountains.
For this project, Dextra engineered and supplied in 2012 the Tension Bars suspending the roof of the building.
The long architectural bar systems are anchored onto steel pylons and suspend the roof structure.
The Tension Bar sets were supplied in steel grade 460. Each tendon is composed of several bar segments spliced together by the use of couplers (no length adjustment) or turnbuckles (length adjustment and tensioning possible).
In total, over 50 tons of Tension Bars which are anchoring the roof structure of the Pune Cricket Stadium.
