Standards and Criteria

When designing our stadium and Olympic village, it's necessary to keep LEED criteria in mind. Wikipedia offers a nice summary, but here's a more authentic source:

On another note, can someone find the statistics to these Olympic events? It would be nice to know the scope of people that will attend so that we can finally decide on the following:

• What size the stadium should be?
• How many seats should the stadium have?
• How many people would need to be accommodated in terms of the residential and commercial zones of our Olympic village.
  

And @ Rilwan--nice design. :-)

I like the idea of a spiral/solar panel/retractable roof... but I'm more in favour of a tensile roof....

Did you know that it takes more energy to manufacture a solar panel than a solar panel can generate during its lifetime?????

Yeah... Google it to confirm that.
