The stadium is expanding
Wrocław stadium for Euro 2012 is growing bigger and bigger every day. Giant bolts, over one hundred tones each, were placed in the site at the end of August. There will be fifty of them in all. First football games in the new stadium are planned for summer of 2011.
Six biggest bolts were installed first. Each of them is 36 metres high and weighs 110 tones including 40 tones of armature. In the end, fifty such bolts will prop the tribunes in the corners of the stadium.
Earlier, in the second half of August, the making of the ceiling over L-2 level was finished and first ceilings over L-3 level were filled with concrete. First pillars at the level L-4 were placed on the ceilings finished, and these pillars prop the bolts.
