London olympics 2012 galleries - Velodrome

befindet sich im Norden des Olympiaparks, ist einer der nachhaltigsten London 2012 Spielstätten - von der Nutzung der sibirischen Kiefer für die Spur-und Außenverkleidung, durch die Verwendung der Stahlseile anstelle von Trägern im Dach, und ein 100 % natürliches Belüftungssystem, das die Notwendigkeit für die Klimaanlage überflüssig macht.

The Velodrome, located to the north of the Olympic Park, is one of the most sustainable London 2012 venues – from the use of Siberian pine for the track and external cladding, through to the use of the steel cables instead of girders in the roof, and a 100% natural ventilation system that eliminates the need for air conditioning.

Smart and sustainable design
