Abstract This paper describes the design and construction of the concrete structures of the Corinthians Arena built for the 2014 World Cup. Due to many constraints, the structure was designed, essentially, with prefabricated structural concrete members, some specific elements were designed with structural concrete cast in situ, and some areas, with special construction problems, were designed with composite steel–concrete structures.
