Use the mesh tool and some tipps like this: Aus 2D-Höhenlinien ein Gelände erstellen
Or use the Solid-Element-Function and subtract two elipsoids.

...for special constructions you can also take the "gdl toolbox" for archicad, as far as you have that tool

I'm not sure, if I have understood correctly:
you need a roof and the steelstructure below for your sports stadium ?
- first of all be happy to construct one with circular floor plan. so you only have to build one segment and then you can multiply it.
- try to construct the main beams with the trussmaker tool.
- use for horizontal structure elements the wall tool
- if you neet vertical elements use the column tool
... if you have further questions, ask!
