State-of-the-Art Applications
Synthetic Turf fields are more complicated than
you may think…
The foundations of these fields are more
important than the synthetic turf itself !
Invest the money in the infrastructure.
Work with experienced turf designers and
turf builders.

“I would also say that time was the major factor during design. Because of the schedule, the end user did not have as much time to review the design, materials and how each venue functioned, as we would normally like. The quick design added additional pressure to the quick construction schedule, because changes were made to the design during construction. “Lessons: plan for the appropriate amount of time for design and construction. A year or two may seem like a lot of time, but goes fast in design and construction.” Robert Neu, AIA, LEED AP Associate | Project Architect

Issues Post-ConstructionIf We Had a Do Over
MSU Athletic and Recreation Fields“The greatest challenge we had during construction was the accelerated schedule. Twenty-five million dollars’ worth of construction put in service in eight months does not allow for typical project coordination. “Unforeseen conditions, owner changes, and plan changes which are normally and uneventfully incorporated into a project became emergency issues that had to be resolved at ‘100 mph.’” John Blanton Associate | Construction Manager

Issues Post-ConstructionIf We Had a Do Over
“At [Football] Venue One the schedule and site logistics were stretched to
their limits. There was the active field immediately to the West, the main path
for University administration, physical plant and several shuttle lines
immediately to the East. There was no room to efficiently laydown and
organize materials and equipment. All of this again was compounded by the
unforeseen conditions in the soils and all the snow and cold. Just in time
deliveries were required daily for all trades; with very limited access to
vehicular traffic. The site constraints and pace of the project stretched the
patience and cooperation of all trades to their maximum.

Issues Post-ConstructionIf We Had a Do Over
“The biggest challenges we faced on this project were related to schedule,
site logistics and unforeseen conditions. All were compounded by the awful
weather and the design challenges that arose as a result of a very short
design phase.
“Last but not least was the introduction of the signage and scoreboards that
had not been completely designed and were not coordinated with the site and
design requirements. All of which detracted the entire design team away from
the other issues.”

“[Field Hockey / Lacrosse] Venue Three had a fair amount of civil work to do
in preparation for the field placement, during the worst time of the year for
that kind of work. Add to that challenge the very wet, very cold weather and
the six month timeline for construction. There were myriad design issues
overlooked which impacted both schedule and cost.
“At [Track / Soccer] Venue Two there was a little more time in the schedule
but we met large amounts of bad soils and the remediation of those
conditions with the weather was a massive delay. Compounding these issues
were the myriad design issues brought on not only by the short design period
(track length, surface material, structural detailing) but also by the change to
cast masonry units from precast concrete; which was a necessity for both
constructability and cost.

9 Lessons learned for a project to be successful…
1. From Steven Covey’s 7 Habits…”Begin with the end in
mind” = Always work backward from the goal.
2. There is no silver bullet for success, just humility and
hard work.
3. Clearly define the goal for everyone and work towards
the same goal so everybody can share in the success.
4. Know the difference between what is necessary and what
is less important. Focus on the essentials for success.
5. All Stakeholders and Key Players need to take ownership
and responsibility for their decisions.
Field of Dreams Presentation – MPRA 2015 Conference37 February 26, 2015
9 Lessons learned for a project to be successful…
1. Communication is key – Be as proactive as you can
instead of reactive. Anticipate trouble before it becomes
trouble.
2. Teamwork is essential – please leave the egos at the door.
Owner, Architect, and Contractor need to cooperate with
one another. It is amazing what can be accomplished if
you don’t care who gets the credit !
3. Multiple Substantial Completion Dates on Athletic Fields
were needed, but it made planning, design, and
construction more difficult.
4. Give yourselves more time than we had for planning,
design, and construction. It will save you money in the
long run.
