The roof construction, built of GL28c glued-laminated timber, has the following dimensions:
- Length: 236 ft
- Width: 138 ft
- Height: 36 ft
The principal roof truss is composed of seven three‑hinged frames arranged in a spacing of 16.4 ft, each with curved corners and a span length of 138 ft.
Seven half‑frames with a span length of 68.9 ft stand at both ends of the hall. They are connected to the exterior main frames in a star shape.
The secondary framework structure consists of single‑span purlins which are attached to the frame. The roof is stiffened by the frames in the transversal direction and by steel bracing in the longitudinal direction.
The complete timber structure has been assigned to service class 2. All structural timber components have fire resistance class F 15, the structural steel parts have F 0.
