ULMA drainage at Beira Rio: Central venue of the football World Cup-Brazil

The Beira-Rio Stadium is a Brazilian football stadium located in the city of Porto Alegre on the River Guaiba coast. It belongs to the Internacional team; it has capacity for 58,306 spectators. It is soon to serve as one of the central venues of the Football World Cup 2014 which is to be played in Brazil.

In this project the U150 and  Self200 Drainage Channels have been installed, both fitted with a galvanised steel grating and a ribbed design. These channels are perfect for sports' facilities where there are no excessive requirements in terms of resistance to loads or heavy vehicles. They are multiuse channels endowed with a constant height and are very practical on pipelines that are not excessively long. The constructor Andrade Gutierrez chose our drainage system for several reasons, the most important being the technical solution offered as well as the speed of the implementation timeframe.
