Washington DC Nationals Major League Baseball Stadium

Washington, DC

SWSG prepared cold-formed steel construction documents for a 800,000 SF major league baseball stadium. Cold-formed steel design and calculations were completed for the interior and exterior framing of the 50,000 seat stadium. Project included design of press box floor system, whirl-pool bath floor systems, suspension design for glass sliders at owner’s suites, and field inspections.

Pittsburgh Penguin’s Sports Arena

Pittsburgh, PA

SWSG provided structural engineering services for cold-formed steel design of exterior and interior framing for a new 720,000 SF multi-level sports arena building. Complex changes in the arena’s exterior wall footprint were value-engineered with structural solutions utilizing cold -form steel instead of structural steel. Reduction in the arena’s footprint were accommodated with structural solutions utilizing cold form steel instead of modifying main structural frame which would have been costly in terms of time and money.
