| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a case study of the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, focusing on the design of an international standard and natural turf surface. The turf will accommodate Australian rules football, soccer, rugby, cricket, concerts, and special events. The specifications for the pitch construction were developed by Young Consulting Engineers as part of the Daryl Jackson Bligh Lobb team of engineering consultants. Discusses the challenging conditions of the turf surface, such as shade coverage and moving tiers. Reviews the turf performance requirements and discusses how these requirements will be met. Describes how the irrigation system will provide the necessary flexibility to deal with heavy shading and moving tiers. |
