The largest sports facility in Ekaterinburg, located in the Verch-Isetskom district in the central part of the city, is built on the site of the stadium that existed before, which was opened in 1956. The old stadium was officially recognized as an object of cultural heritage as an example of a public sports structure in the mid-20th century, made in the forms of Soviet neoclassicism, so its classical appearance will be preserved.
The project is designed to preserve the historical walls of the western and eastern tribune, the buildings of the eastern and western ticket offices with gates, as well as the site of a historic metal fence with brick column. The facades of the eastern and western stands will be restored, and within them a new volume will be created, designed in accordance with the requirements of FIFA. The central stadium of the capital of the Urals during the FIFA 2018 World Cup in Russia will be called "Ekaterinburg Stadium".
For such a responsible construction, the Ural builders chose only the most reliable and quality materials. Having a huge experience with reliable waterproofing Plastfoil® company LLC "1 Stroytsentr Saturn-R" has supplied material for the contractor. The membrane was installed by the company “AstraStroyMontazh” which has established itself as a responsible installer of roofing works in the Urals region. The total area of the roof was 27 000 m2. This year will be held test matches at the new stadium. A good mood of fans, which can accommodate 35,000 people in the stadium will contribute to reliability Plastfoil® which will allow watching the games of your favorite teams, regardless of the of nature.
