    Our Philosophy

    Buro Happold has established itself as a next generation

    multi-disciplinary engineering and consulting rm. In

    combination with our worldwide office network, our

    North American east coast practice provides seamless

    delivery for our clients. Buro Happolds east coast team

    consists of 91 engineers, CADD technician and Project

    Managers.

    Rigor the Buro Happold Way.

    We blend technical expertise with rigorous analysis,modeling and testing of ideas. The Anaheim Regional

    Transportation Intermodal Center (ARTIC) is a great

    illustration of this approach to a LEED Platinum project

    incorporating the largest use of ETFE in North America.

    Integrated Design Open Plan, Open Mind.

    We operate in open plan office space, devoid of discipline

    segregation, working together in a highly collaborative

    environment. Sensitive and open to the architects ideas, our

    uent use of BIM allows us to quickly test ideas in real time.

    Metrics - Proving Success.

    We use a variety of metrics combined with the BIM model

    allowing end users to measure performance during future

    operation of the building; an example is Morphosis Offices

    for which we are conducting a post occupany evaluation.

    Global Experience, Locally Applied.

    In the past 35 years we have grown a successful business

    by working on the best projects, with the best people. We

    learn from our past, bringing the lessons of each project

    forward to inform the next.

    Sustainability Of Course.

    Sustainability is not a separate discipline but a core value

    that informs all sectors of our practice. Incorporating

    sustainability into every design, we save costs while

    maximizing performance as illustrated in our Genzyme

    Headquarters project, the rst LEED Platinum oce

    building in North America.

    Sustainable Building Design

    Buro Happold has considerable experience in designing

    low energy buildings and we are recognized as one of the

    worlds leading consultants in the field of sustainability

    thinking. It was through this commitment that we were

    awarded the Queens Award for Sustainable Development

    in 2001.

    Buro Happold has been participating as a sustainable

    design specialist on a number of projects in the US

    recently. As an external member of the design team, Buro

    Happold has been brought in to facilitate a sustainable

    design ideas generation process to green buildings.

    Faade Engineering

    Buro Happold faades engineering progresses the

    performance of building faades both for the varied

    activities of the occupants and also for environmental

    gain. To do this, we have gathered a select group of faade

    experts. Their talents span knowledge of materials and

    technologies through to practical design skills whichprovide workable, cost effective and lasting solutions. By

    understanding the key structural and functional features

    our pragmatic solution for the faades enhances the total

    building environment.

    Light Design

    Lighting is part of the ergonomic fabric of the built

    environment. As lighting designers, we respond to the

    visual needs of people in their environments. We invest

    time to interpret how space will be moved through and

    inhabited, and how lighting can enhance this experience.

    Our backgrounds in both architecture and engineering

    give us the opportunity to provide a complete, integrated

    daylight and electric lighting service for complex projects

    where creative design is balanced with technical acumen.As part of a multidisciplinary office, we collaborate closely

    with the mechanical, electrical, faade, security, A/V, IT

    and sustainability teams to create efficient harmonized

    building systems.

    Our Approach to Building Information Modeling (BIM)

    and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)

    As design innovators in the built environment, we use model

    based, integrative design to deliver the highest quality

    projects. We promote a highly collaborative approach

    framed by the philosophies of Integrated Project Delivery

    tethered with appropriate technologies. Combining talent,

    technique and technologies we promote high performance,

    value and efficiency while reducing waste and embodied

    energy. Through the lifecycle of our projects, the Building

    Information Model is the central repository of project intent,coordination, progress, and continues into operation and

    post occupancy monitoring and tuning.

    At Buro Happold we employ associative, parametric and

    computational design techniques to optimize design

    quality through ecient iterative analytical experiments.

    We strive to innovate by developing custom built tools

    that extend the capabilities of industry standard software.

    Additionally, we employ experts that are renowned in

    the industry and actively collaborate with major software

    vendors on functionality and interoperability.

    Emirates Stadium, London, UK

    Significant Sports and Stadia Expertise

    Buro Happold provides engineering for complete sports

    developments, stadiums, arenas, ballparks, aquatic

    centers and convention centers. Buro Happold engineers

    work as part of a design team with architects and other

    professionals, providing either a specific discipline

    or the total engineering input. A multi-disciplinary

    approach helps us to deliver more effective responses

    from the important early stages of design through to

    nal implementation and subsequent operation and

    maintenance. Sports and entertainment facilities oftenassume iconic status. As such, the engineering design

    must strive to achieve the architects vision. For us, this

    successful fusion of architecture and engineering is a

    guiding principle which we have successfully applied to

    an impressive range of projects. We design facilities from

    the perspective of both the owner and the fan - we work

    to provide an enhanced player and fan experience, as well

    as an improved facility that can provide an owner with a

    good platform for supporting and growing their business.

    Reconciling the architects vision and the business

    aims of the client with the needs of the user, while

    demonstrating sensitivity to historical and social context,requires a special combination of skills and experience.

    Buro Happold is sensitive to all of these considerations inaddressing the engineering issues prevalent in the design

    of sports and leisure facilities. There is no such thing as

    a typical design solution: each and every one must be

    tailored to suit the individual expectations, aspirations and

    history of the specific sports club.

    Long Span

    Buro Happold is well experienced in long span roof

    design, construction and coordination. The understanding

    of efficient long span design must take into account

    constructability issues, as the cost of long span roof is not

    only measured in steel weight but also in the complexity

    of the design, connections and erection procedures.

    Emirates Stadium, Arsenal Football Club

    London, UK

    The overall form and structural configuration of Arsenal

    FCs Emirates Stadium was derived by striving for a balance

    between a wide range of factors including: high quality

    viewing standards; iconic stadium form; desire to maximize

    the quality of the pitch microclimate; limitations imposed

    by a tight site footprint; and restrictions on budget and

    construction period.

    Buro Happolds structural and multidisciplinary design team

    helped Sports Architecture develop the resulting elliptical

    plan-form conguration which features ve main levels

    of accommodation and four seating tiers, yet is containedwithin a compact site footprint and also respects the height

    restriction imposed by local planners.The roof form features

    a constant eaves line around the entire perimeter, and then

    slopes downwards towards the pitch.

    London 2012 Olympic Stadium

    London, UK

    Located in the heart of the Olympic Park, a previously

    rundown industrial area of East London, the Stadium now

    forms the center piece of the largest new park created in

    Europe for a century. In legacy the Stadium will create a

    world class athletics venue for the communities within

    London and beyond. Designed with an 80,000 capacity

    for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Stadium is

    designed such that it can be dismantled down to a 25,000

    capacity venue if required for its longer term use.

    Buro Happold worked as part of Team Stadium, an

    integrated design and construction team led by Sir RobertMcAlpine, and including Populous as architects and HED

    as landscape architects. This collaborative and integrated

    approach to the project has created a simple dismantlable

    superstructure with an innovative lightweight cable

    supported roof. Implementing a significant amount of

    prefabrication of concrete and steel elements early on

    meant that the program, quality of work and safety were

    protected. Significant milestones including the lift of the

    inner tension ring from its temporary scaffolding structure

    to its final position could not have been achieved without

    the ingenuity and integration of the whole team.

    Where possible the team reused existing materials, for

    example, the Compression Truss to the roof was constructed

    by using 4,000 tons of unwanted gas pipeline found in a

    yard in Yorkshire. The project was completed two months

    ahead of the contract completion date and under budget

    with an outstanding safety record.

    The Millennium Dome

    Greenwich, London, UK

    One of the most recognized landmarks in the UK and

    the largest of its kind in the world, the Millennium

    Dome was completed in 1999. Buro Happold provided

    multidisciplinary services including structural engineering

    and long span and lightweight structures engneering.

    The roof of the Dome is an enormous cable net, 1,000 feet

    in diameter and clad in 860,000 square feet of tensioned

    PTFE coated glass fiber fabric. It is an innovative feat of

    engineering yet simple in concept, and was the recipient

    of the prestigious MacRobert Award in 1999. The roof

    surface is shaped like a spherical cap. Twelve 330-foot-

    high steel masts extend from the roof that support a

    tensioned net of steel cables, arranged radially on the

    surface of the Dome and held in place by hangar and

    tie-down cables at 82 foot intervals. An inner layer of

    covering reduces thermal gain and improves thermal and

    acoustic performance.

    Aviva Stadium

    Dublin, Ireland

    Buro Happold undertook the structural, civil and

    geotechnical engineering for this 50,000 seat stadium built

    for both the Irish Rugby Football Union and the Football

    Association of Ireland. The new stadium is on the site of the

    old Lansdowne Road Stadium and consists of a continuous

    curvilinear shaped stand enclosing all four sides of the field.

    The south, east and west stands all have four tiers of seating

    with the majority of the spectators alongside the pitch. On

    the north side there is just the one tier as the stadium comes

    down dramatically in height to minimize the impact of the

    building on the adjoining neighborhood.

    The roof of the new stadium is approximately 620 feet long

    in the north-south direction and 650 feet wide in the east-

    west direction. Dierent structural systems were required to

    form the roof and respond to the differing building height

    criteria and seating bowl configurations of each stand.

    The horseshoe roof truss is supported on 15m high sculpted

    concrete columns which spring from behind the north stand

    tier. From these, the faceted horseshoe truss runs around

    and provides cover to the east, south and west stands of

    the stadium, and is supported by radial spur trusses at

    each facet. The single tiered north stand is covered by a

    lightweight in-plane truss system roof, which is supported

    off the horseshoe truss.

    Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago

    Brian Lara Stadium is a world class training facility and

    athletic center located near the Port of Spain in Trinidad.

    The 15,000-seat stadium was envisioned to compliment the

    natural slope of the landscape.

    The stadium prominently features a 3-story grandstand with

    executive box and club seating accommodations, a four-

    story press tower and a sweeping, articulated steel canopy

    roof which cantilevers 30-meters from supporting columns.

    Buro Happold collaborated closely with Populous to best

    articulate the exposed structure and was responsible for

    structural engineering of the extensive system of retainingwalls, pile foundations, the superstructure and roof structure

    and the lateral stability system.

    Buro Happold also optimized the structure supporting the

    raked seating through dynamic simulation methods to find

    significant savings in steel tonnage.

    The 8,500 seat Palasport Oval Lingotto is a world class speed

    skating arena which was part of the redevelopment of the

    Lingotto exhibition complex. The design had to meet three

    key criteria: provide optimum internal climatic conditions for

    speed skating; create a exible, dual-use venue for the local

    community that offers skating in winter and exhibition space

    in the summer; and improve the local environment as an

    integral part of the urban redevelopment.

    Buro Happolds structural engineers faced a key challenge on

    the project - the construction of the arenas soaring 360 x 720

    feet clear-span roof structure, which is made up of a systemof arching secondary trusses and curved primary bow-trusses

    supported at one end on leaning quadrapod legs. The entire

    steel structure is exposed and its undulating form gives the

    arena a stunning appearance. The roof was designed to carry

    substantial snow loads and undergoes large deflections under

    both snow and thermal loadings; requiring an innovative joint

    at the head of the facades to accommodate these movements.

    of 14,000 in the upper tier and 16,000 in the lower stand

    and the field meets FIFA and UEFA criteria.

    Buro Happold provided structural engineering services

    for the project and was responsible for the concept

    design for the whole stadium and the scheme design forthe movable, polycarbonate roof. The roof protects the

    field from the harsh climatic conditions, but also provides

    natural light and ventilation for the comfort of the

    spectators.

    The main structure is comprised of insitu reinforced concrete

    with prefabricated concrete elements for the stands. The

    concrete structure provides an economical yet durable

    structure with good resistance against weather conditions.

    Sections of the east and west elevations are faced in profiled

    aluminium cladding aording it a sleek, aesthetic quality.

    Bristol City Football Club New Stadium

    Ashton Vale, UK

    In November 2007 Bristol City Football Club announced

    their intention to relocate to a new site in Ashton Vale.

    The proposed new stadium will have an increased seating

    capacity of 30,000 with a flexible design, potentially

    accommodating up to 40,000 in the following phases. The

    stadium will be designed to host Rugby Union matches

    and non-sporting events such as concerts and exhibitions.

    One of the clubs requirements for their new stadium is the

    ability to host UEFA and/or FIFA sponsored games so great

    care has been taken to ensure the design is compliant

    with UEFAs and FIFAs current specification guidelines forstadia.

    The clubs supporters have been at the heart of this new

    stadium; a detailed consultation process was carried

    out, initiated through a fans survey and concluded with

    a number of meetings between the design team and

    supporters trust. These sessions proved to be extremely

    beneficial, refining and confirming the clubs original

    design brief.

    In order to improve the new stadiums environmental

    credentials, different methods of reducing the carbon

    emissions and running costs have been investigated, such

    as photovoltaic panels, wind turbines and ground source

    heat pumps.

    Currently we are proposing solutions (which include the

    provision of a biomass heating plant) that will reduce the

    site carbon emissions by 10%, while creating a minimal

    aesthetic and cost impact for the stadium and the

    surrounding site.

    We are currently awating planning permission for this new

    stadium and the program indicates a stadium opening for

    the start of the 2013 football season.
