The Coastal Carolina University Softball and Baseball Complex project by Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood consists of demolition and replacement of the current stadium in an effort to achieve the Chanticleer program’s goal of providing top-rate facilities for student athletes that emulate the “Coastal” feeling.
Improvements include new team facilities, recessed dugouts, 2,500-spectator seating capacity, restrooms, full-service concessions, novelty sales area, press box with work space for media personnel, premium box and suite areas, clubhouse and locker room for athletes along with coaches and umpires and potential upgrades to the lights, scoreboard and existing landscape.
This facility was designed in collaboration with Populous.
This shot shows the Central Portion of the Falsework; namely the pre-assembled 'goalpost' frame units that are crane handled into place onto the bridge, probably in groups of frames.
This assembly will match the length of the 'hanger platform' assembly that is bolted onto the ends of the 'goalposts' to create, for each 'goalpost' and 'headbeam', a Full Moment Connection.

The City of Hoover has seen enormous growth in its sports programs over the past 10 years and needed a new complex that would fulfill their existing needs, allow for growth and give the City the ability to create new revenue streams and take advantage of sports tourism by hosting large tournament events. Hoover had not built any new athletic facilities in 15 years. At the same time the City’s sports participation had increased by multiples of 200% - 500% depending on the sport. The growth was caused by increases in both youth and adult sports leagues, as well as the relatively recent popularity of additional sports.
The multi-purpose Finley Center, which connects to the existing Hoover Met baseball stadium with a covered walkway, is able to accommodate a full-size football or soccer field, nine regulation-size basketball courts, 12 regulation-size volleyball courts or six indoor tennis courts. It can also seat 2,400 for banquets and 5,000 for events with general seating, such as a graduation ceremony or concert. Additional features of the indoor facility include a recreational walking track suspended 14 feet in the air, an athletic training and rehab center, and a food court.
The Finley Center sits on a 120 acre site that GMC master planned and includes fields for soccer, lacrosse, football, baseball and softball, tennis courts, a play ground walking track and splash pad.
Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood (GMC) provided master planning, architecture, interior design, civil engineering, construction materials testing, and environmental engineering services for this project.
Comments always appreciated, as long as you keep it clean - I love to hear your feedback! xx
I went for a visit to Derby for their comedy festival and to spend the weekend with Gemma.
Saturday morning we went to Belper to the river gardens and the horseshoe weir, which is an incredible piece of civil engineering!
The gardens are lovely and tranquil. It was a great little alternative to our usual trip to Dovedale - which we called off because the weather wasn't great.
Had a lovely morning though!
Ed' Sanborn's house in Saigon 1969-70. My uncle Ed managed Vietnam operations for a New York based civil engineering firm in 1969-70.
Not sure whether these are to do with the new depot, the new flyover (probably not - too far north), electrification (which is not actually part of the remodelling) or something else.

It is important for efficiency and safety that passengers can exit carriages quickly and easily. UCL's PAMELA (Pedestrian Accessibility Movement Environment Laboratory) contains a life-size replica tube-train so that researchers can study how participants leave the carriage.

McKean County, Pennsylvania
Completed 1882
The workforce consisted of less than 100 men, yet they finished construction in just 94 days. Such speed was possible due to the elimination of scaffolding. Instead, iron rods were used to support construction of the trusses between the towers, and workers moved back and forth across the rods. A dangerous venture, yet no workers were seriously injured.
The Kinzua Railway Viaduct, built by the New York, Lake Erie & Western Railroad, was an iron trestle bridge spanning the Kinzua Valley. It was a critical structure in facilitating the transport of coal from Northwestern Pennsylvania to the Eastern Great Lakes region, and is credited with causing an increase in coal mining that led to significant economic growth.
Upon completion, it was the highest and longest railroad bridge in the world. The rails were 301 feet above the valley, with a total length of 2,052 feet. The $275,000 viaduct required a record-breaking 3.5 million pounds of iron.
By 1900, railroad engines were nearly 85% heavier, exceeding the capacity of the iron structure; so a steel replacement bridge was built using the original foundations. Freight service over the bridge ceased in 1963, and the bridge and surrounding area were designated the Kinzua Bridge State Park. Today the bridge offers pedestrians and excursion trains an exceptional view of the Kinzua Valley.
Facts
- Twenty iron towers supported the roadbed.
- Six of the towers were higher than those of the Brooklyn Bridge.
- Each tower was composed of four wrought-iron columns.
- The bridge required 110 masonry piers.
- The bridge was 10 feet wide along the top, but the tallest of the towers spreads to 193 feet at the base, giving the structure considerable stability.

Lamp standard by the Lion Foundry, Kirkintilloch.
Originally founded by former staff from the Saracen Foundry in 1880, initially under the name of Jackson, Brown, Hudson and Cuthbert. Changing the name to the Lion Foundry in 1885, the company produced a wide variety of decorative and functional cast-iron until 1984. They are probably best known for the iconic red telephone boxes and postboxes which were made there.
