Lloyd provided general civil engineering and sports design for this award winning spring training facility, located on 140-acres of SRPMIC land. The facility, shared by the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies, is centered around an 11,000-seat open-air stadium complete with vending and retail areas, restrooms, private suites, and concourses. The project includes 13 baseball fields with premium turf, rootzone, and drainage systems and are designed for professional competition. Each team occupies its own training grounds with state-of-the-art clubhouse buildings, practice areas, and secured parking. The site landscaping and baseball fields are irrigated from a large onsite lake.
Civil engineering services included grading and drainage, infrastructure, and roadway design, in addition to sports engineering which included design of the professional playing fields. This project is the first LEED Gold-certified sports venue of its kind in the United States. In 2018, the Lloyd team was hired to assist the AZ Diamondbacks with renovations for both Salt River Fields and Chase Field concurrently, providing design and construction administration services for the conversion of natural grass to synthetic turf at two of the fields at the training complex. #lloyd #lloydsports #lloydengineers #lloydengineering #lloydsportsandengineering #sportsengineering #sportsdesign #fielddesign #sportsfields #grading #drainage #synthetictuf #sports #mlb #springtraining #cactusleague #saltriver #talkingstick #saltriverattalkingstick #azdiamondbacks #arizona #arizonadiamondbacks #coloradorockies #AZ #scottsdale #turfconversion #chasefield #arizonadiamondbacks #LEEDGold #LEED Lloyd provided sports and civil engineering and design for the field renovation at the historic Hohokam Stadium in Mesa, Arizona.
