Collier County Parks and Recreation designed a  facility focused on large sporting tournaments.  Currently, Phase I & II of the facility are underway, and portions of the park are expected to be open to the public within the year. 

 

The build-out of this project includes:

• nine multi-use synthetic-turf fields

• a large 3,000 stadium with a multi-use synthetic turf field

• baseball & softball diamonds

• a field house with locker-room facilities

 

The various structures are high bay one or two-story structures with large spans and large building loads. 

 

Forge recommended the contractor utilize a geo-grid to aid in controlling excessive settlement conditions to tolerable limits. This allows the entire project to be constructed on a shallow foundation.  FORGE’s geo-grid recommendation prevented a vibro-replacement.
