The Paris-Longchamp racecourse gets a new look with a new architectural gem
Dominique Perrault has succeeded in the metamorphosis of this historic site.
After 2 years of work, the internationally renowned Parisian racecourses will once again be able to welcome the public from 29 April 2018. It is therefore 160 years after its first inauguration that the historic Paris-Longchamp building is changing its appearance and being modernised under the project management of France Galop. The restoration of the infrastructure was supervised by Bouygues Construction.
The architect Dominique Perrault (DPA) wanted to “make the building disappear into the landscape, while multiplying the views”. To achieve this, we proposed our SABCO glass railing solution, which provides a 180-degree view of the track and offers a whole new experience for racing enthusiasts.
Our glass railing, the SABCO 7019, is tested and validated for resistances from 5.1 to 10KN. This product was developed for stadium stands to guarantee the safety of visitors in crowded areas such as here for the racetrack stands.
This project required 2 600ml of SABCO railing.
90 years after its official opening, Jean Bouin stadium gets a new look in 2013!
The new building located in the heart of Paris, was redesign by architect Rudy Ricciotti and the reconstruction under the direction of Leon Grosse. The company had the benefit of SADEV’s expertise in order to deal with the technical and temporal contraints.
The building enveloppe was completely renovated and the roof covered with 3543 panels composed of ultra high performance fiber concrete. The cover combining concrete and glass, rests on a steel structure and the connection between them is made by a special metal part supplied by SADEV.
The U Arena project can be considered as an unconventional project, as the stadium will “indoor” host the rugby team “Racing-Metro 92” and become the European largest concert hall, thanks to a flexible capacity from 10 000 to 40 000 seats.
Closed to the hall will be located a 30 000 sqm. building, hosting the General Council Headquarter.
An Architectural work
This 117 000 sqm. urban area has been conceived and designed by the French famous architect Christian de Portzamparc.
The project takes part of the “Sei-ne-Arche” operation, as the Arena is located at the foot of Grande Arche la Defense.
SADEV Contribution
The Arena stands are covered by a crown of wavy concrete, under which stands the facade, composed of glass and aluminum scales.
The 3 levels’ facade have been equipped with high-size scales that are transparent, mixt or opaque.
