This blog will serve as a diary covering the construction of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ football stadium in Port Elizabeth/Nelson Mandela Bay, South Africa as well as looking at progress on the other 2010 stadiums.
The 6th truss is up. The 7th truss is ready to be lifted from the template. The 8th truss needs a few more purlins and the first two components (tusks) of the 9th truss are in place.
The scaffolding up, yet the cladding has not yet been attached.
All 6 trusses.
Note the 7th and 8th trusses. The 7th closer, the 8th beyond. The 9th is further around the corner with its first two components.

I am a student doing a BSc degree at Rhodes University.
I created this blog to chart South Africa's progress in its preparations for the greatest show on Earth. This show is now complete so I leave you with possibly the best 2010 preparation diary on the web. Enjoy.
