Arena Corinthians safety assessment completes 10 years

Exactly 10 years ago (May 2013) IEME Brasil evaluated, using a forced vibration test, the safety of the stands at Neo Química Arena, the Corinthians stadium that hosted the opening of the 2014 World Cup.

With the help of Vibrodina, mechanical generating equipment that simulates the movement of fans, IEME’s technical team evaluated the dynamic behavior of the structure, to ensure the necessary safety and comfort to receive the fans. About a month after its inauguration, on June 12, the stadium hosted the opening of the World Cup, with Brazil’s 3-1 victory over Croatia.

During the six World Cup games, Arena Corinthians received around 360,000 spectators. The last match set the stadium’s attendance record, which at the time had provisional stands: 63,267 paying for Argentina vs. the Netherlands.

IEME Brasil was contracted for the job by Odebrecht, which is responsible for the Arena Corinthians works. The same technology had been used in large Italian stadiums, such as San Siro, in Milan, and Olímpico, in Rome.
