| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the "complete design and rebuild of the Penrith Panthers football stadium, on the western edge of Sydney [Australia]." States that "the new profile will cope successfully with rainfall of up to 200 millimetres an hour." Details the drainage and composition of the field. Details the functions of MixAyrs, FeedAyrs, and PavAyrs. Concludes that "the beauty of the mesh elements was that it made for a firm but not hard surface. 'It will never go hard and that is a major benefit for player safety'...[and] the other benefit was agronomic because there were always air spaces in the profile for good root growth and good turf recovery." Includes sidebar, profiling Joe McCullagh and his work on various turfgrass projects around the world. |
