Club Hired Three Companies to Conduct Studies on the Land That Will Support the Architectural Project of the Future Arena

Flamengo officially commenced technical studies for the construction of its new stadium on the Gasômetro site, located in the central region of Rio de Janeiro. The current stage is dedicated to collecting soil and area data to guide the architectural project and ensure safety and feasibility for the work.

Study Stage Marks Progress in the Construction Project

Following the acquisition of the land at Gasômetro, Flamengo began a crucial phase for the future of the project: conducting technical and environmental studies. According to information released by the club on its YouTube channel and supplemented by CNN Brazil’s portal, three specialized companies have been hired to carry out the surveys. Arena MRV + Venues will be responsible for the conceptual project, while Aecom will handle environmental and soil contamination analysis, Soloteste will focus on the geotechnical aspects, and JDS will manage the topography.

The land covers approximately 90,000 square meters and requires a thorough technical evaluation. Professionals are conducting surveys to collect soil samples and measure its resistance, an essential step in determining the type of ideal foundation for the future arena. The safe construction process begins precisely in this initial phase of analysis, focusing on preventing unforeseen events during the execution of the work. According to the club’s infrastructure manager, Patrícia Taka, the construction schedule will be established only after completing the studies, which should take about six months.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

While Ferrogrão has been stalled for 16 years in Brazil, Chinese engineers are drilling 34.5 km of rock under Gaoligong Mountain to open Asia’s largest railway tunnel.

Chinese probe Tianwen-2 is traveling 45 million kilometers to touch Earth’s quasi-satellite Kamoʻoalewa and bring 100 grams of sample back home.

Researchers are excavating in Morocco the world’s oldest ankylosaur, dating back 165 million years, with nearly 1-meter long spines protruding from its neck.

Russia is sailing all 8 nuclear icebreakers of its fleet simultaneously for the first time in history, as the Arctic freezes two weeks earlier than expected.

Few know, but India has a 36 km wall that surrounds a fort in the mountains and is considered the second largest in the world, behind the Great Wall of China.
