Yuan, X; Pan, H and Fu, B (2023) Models and analysis of stadium and commercial space integration: A case study from China. Building Research & Information, 51(8), pp. 915-936. ISSN 0961-3218
Abstract
Stadiums that are solely used for athletic competitions can lead to a desolate post-event environment and the waste of resources. However, China still lacks systematic research on the integration models of and paths between stadiums and commercial spaces. This study identified models of stadium and commercial space integration, analyzed the associated factors, and proposed a development framework. The research methods included literature review, case data collection, pattern induction and expert interviews. By analyzing 58 cases, this study summarized eight models for stadium–commercial space integration; analyzed the correlation between different models and development types, land use environments, and business configurations; and conducted in-depth analysis of two cases. The findings indicate that an open mindset during the development stage can promote the emergence of new models, utilizing the land environment during the design stage can improve stadium utilization rate, and a multi-business configuration during the operation stage can promote the formation of urban vitality. A development framework is proposed, which emphasizes the collaboration of all stakeholders to optimize every step of the decision-making, construction and operation processes. These findings contribute to identifying development directions for stadiums in China and provide practical methods for the transformation of stadiums into dynamic urban complexes.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
