“The pavilion consists of 19 identical arches made of double-curved steel tubes. These are connected at mid-height and at two points along their circumference to create a self-stabilizing canopy, with the feet connected in pairs by a steel plate to form a transverse fixed support. A textile membrane made of polyester coated with PVC covers the structure.

AXISVM was used to optimize the utilization of the sections by adjusting the diameters and wall thicknesses of the tubes.
