Project Case Study
Heinz Field "Great Hall" Pittsburgh, PA
With Heinz Fields grand opening game only days away, Nathan Contracting
was called in desperation. Work requested was the removal of the green
stain that was applied to the fresh concrete floor surface at the "Great
Hall" location. The "Great Hall" was intended to be the
focal-point for the new stadium, representing the heroes and legends throughout
the history of the Pittsburgh Steelers. When the stain cured, it
turned the floor of this focal-point into an eye-sore due to the fact
that the color was not consistent, nor
appealing throughout the entire 60,000 square foot area. With only
3 days remaining until the grand opening of the stadium, it was our job
to remove the existing surface by shot
blasting the stain off in time for a new product and finish to be
applied. Crews worked around the clock so that this could all be accomplished
in time for the enthusiastic fans of Pittsburgh.
Other work that Nathan
Contracting performed at Heinz Field was:
- Repair
of the low spots in the existing
concrete. These areas in cold weather would create ice hazards due
the fact that the low spots were holding water.
- Re-alignment of
the concrete floors. To eliminate trip hazards, the concrete in front
of the new retail stores needed to be realigned to match the glass facades.
