Preface

The research work in this thesis was carried out at the Department of Structural

Engineering, Structural Mechanics Group, at the Royal Institute of Technology in

Stockholm, under the supervision of Professor Anders Eriksson. The work reported

in this thesis was financed through a personal grant from KTH.

First of all, I express my gratitude to my supervisor Professor Anders Eriksson for

his scientific guidance and valuable advice.

I also thank Docent Costin Pacoste for help with the selection of a suitable beam

element for the static analyses.

I would also like to thank Professor Emeritus Alf Samuelsson at Chalmers University

of Technology in Gothenburg and Mr. Nils Dahlstedt, Technical Manager

at the Scandinavium Arena in Gothenburg, for the valuable information about the

Scandinavium Arena.

Finally, I am grateful to all people at the Department of Structural Engineering that

have helped me in the work with this thesis.

Stockholm, April 1999
