From multiuse to masterpiece: the transformation of La Peineta

The football club Atlético Madrid has chosen Heidelberg Materials for its building project.

The Olympic stadium in Madrid, known as “La Peineta”, was a multiuse stadium until 2013 – when Atlético Madrid decided to buy it and make it the team’s new stadium, replacing the Vicente Calderon stadium.

For this purpose, Atlético Madrid commissioned Cruz and Ortiz Architects to design a spectacular building, emphasizing comfort, safety, and visibility for visitors and fans.

The building required new structural elements to reinforce the existing structure. For this purpose, the project leaders decided to use i.tech ULTRA 52.5 R/SR for the micropiles supporting the foundation.

i.tech ULTRA 52.5 R/SR is a cement with outstanding mechanical proprieties and a specific resistance to chemical attack, especially from sulphates, and, thanks to its progressive strength development, enables easy and rapid set to work.
