'''Palais des Sports''', known also as the '''Palais des sports Pierre Mendes<ref name="">[http://en.structurae.de/structures/data/index.cfm?id=s0014602 Pierre Mendès France Sports Palace]</ref>''' or "Le Stade Olympique de Glace" is an indoor [[ice hockey]] arena, located in Paul Mistral Park in [[Grenoble]], [[France]]. The vaulted roof structure was built from November 1966 to April 1967, therefore having tough weather problems to add to construction difficulties.

==Structure==<br />
Le structure consists of two crossing cylinders (95m by 65m). The double shell structure (6cm thick) is a hyperbolic paraboloid which transfers the weight down its four resting points. In plan, the structure appears to be a square. At each corner is a 48m cantilever.<br />
