OU Love’s Field of Dreams: Concrete Protection Helps Make Sooners' New Softball Stadium a Reality in Norman
The Oklahoma Sooner Softball team had a record-breaking 2022 season with the program's sixth overall and second consecutive national title, finishing the season 59-3. That's right! The Oklahoma Sooners' softball team had an exceptional 2022 season. Their success solidified their reputation as one of the top programs in college softball. This also solidified the approval of a first-class upgrade to their facilities.
Addressing Concrete Protection During Construction of Field House
As construction progressed, it was crucial to protect the exposed concrete amidst the ongoing framing work. Concrete is a robust and essential component of modern structures, but it requires careful safeguarding during the construction phase to ensure its durability and longevity.
The Challenge:
Concrete protection is critical during the construction phase, especially when the framing is already up. The primary concerns include:
Exposure to Elements: Concrete exposed to the elements can suffer from moisture damage, UV degradation, and temperature fluctuations, which can compromise its integrity.
Physical Damage: The ongoing framing work involves heavy machinery, tools, and materials that can cause scratches, dents, and other physical damage to the concrete surfaces.
Contamination: Construction dust, spills, and debris can lead to contamination, affecting the concrete's finish and structural properties.
