Why hasn't this thread been deleted yet? Admins need to step their game up.

I really hate that this thread contains huge fail, because your response was great. Just not enough to offset the beginning.

Allen rejected plans for a retractable roof during the early stages of the stadium's design. The lack of a retractable roof made it open to the elements, provided better views, and reduced the total cost of the project.[22] The roof, at 200,000 sq ft (19,000 m2),[27] covers 70% of the seats but leaves the field open.[18] The roof spans 720 ft (220 m) between concrete pylon supports at the north and south ends of the stadium. Its two expansive sections are held from below by trusses.[28] From above, two arches with additional supports rise 200 ft (61 m) over the field.[27] Post-tensioned cables were used to achieve its final shape and positioning.[29] To minimize damage in the event of an earthquake, the roof has a friction pendulum damper system. This disconnects the roof from the support pylons so that it can move independently of the structure. The technology had never been applied to a large-scale roof before Qwest Field.[21]
