The Stadium Renovation of
Austintown Fitch High School included the construction of a new
sports field and competition track as well as the restoration of
the existing gymnasium, which was integrated with spectator
stands. The new athletic field utilizes a granulated rubber
infused artificial turf with a drainage system that actually
reduces storm runoff. The new all-weather track includes new
safety features and has expanded event possibilities, including
a new broad jump, high jump, and pole-vaulting apparatus.
Restoration of the gymnasium integrated stands involved
structural rehabilitation of all 180 steel deck supports and
application of a waterproofing system after the existing
concrete deck was repaired. Both new and restored aluminum
bleachers were installed to complete the renovation. |
