5 facteurs clés à prendre en compte lors de la conception d'un projet de padel
An architect and investor’s definitive guide to structural integrity, FIP standards, and maximizing your club's ROI.
Building a professional padel court is not just about assembling steel and glass. It requires rigorous civil engineering, precise static calculations, and an understanding of wind loads, player dynamics, and weather resistance. Here are the five critical factors every investor and architect must prioritize.
Space Planning and Foundation
A standard padel court requires a 10x20m footprint, but professional projects must account for player run-out zones, spectator areas, and foundation depth.

Structural Integrity & Wind Loads
A padel court functions like a building. Especially in coastal or high-altitude areas, the steel framework must withstand extreme wind loads without dangerous glass vibrations.

Glass Walls and Rebound Dynamics
The glass panels are integral to the game. They must provide an absolutely consistent ball rebound while guaranteeing absolute player safety upon impact.

Playing Surface and Lighting
The turf affects both the speed of the game and player joint health. Similarly, poor lighting creates glare on the glass, ruining night-time playability.

Weather Conditions and Canopy Systems
Rain or extreme sun can render an outdoor court unplayable, drastically reducing your club's return on investment (ROI).
