Auditoire Paul-Emile Janson, Educational auditorium at Campus Solbosch, Belgium.

The Auditoire Paul-Emile Janson features a rounded layout with a double-curved roof supported by two cable networks stretching across its span.

The auditorium opened in 1958 through a partnership between the Université libre de Bruxelles and the Expo 58 commission to host conferences and university events.

The building serves as an educational center where students gather for lectures, academic presentations, and university conferences throughout the academic year.

The auditorium contains 1500 seats, with multiple entrance points across different levels due to the sloped terrain of Campus Solbosch.

The roof structure incorporates two reinforced concrete arches at 120 degrees, supported by tripods and connected through prestressed ties for horizontal thrust management.
