Case Study

MetLife Stadium,

East Rutherford, N.J.

• $998 Million

• 2.2 Million s.f. Football Arena

• Skanska USA Building

• More than 3200 Precast

Concrete Pieces

• Utilized RFID tags for tracking

Benefits

• Aware of Status of all Precast members including:

• Production

• Delivery

• Site Preparation

• Installation Status

• Vela Systems and Tekla Corp. provide a Field BIM/Tablet

solution

• Each Piece Designed and Tracked for One Specific

Location

Results/Feedback

• Efficient Coordination of Fabricated Pieces

• Easily Identify jobsite Laydown area and Site

Accessibility upon Material Arrival

Estimated Savings

• Accelerated Schedule by 10 Days

• Generated $1 Million in Savings

Feasibility

Implementing with Analysis Topic #4

• Short Interval Production Schedule (SIPS) for

Façade Re-sequence

• Increased need for Coordination

• Each Day will Require Specific Panels At

Designated Locations

• Tablet PC allows efficient communication

between Field Personnel and Manufacturer

Concerns

• RFID Tag Prices Outweigh Overall Benefit to Project

• Who will absorb the additional costs to pay for the

system?

Recommendation

• Application of RFID Tracking Systems Not Feasible

• Tagging more beneficial for larger-scale projects,

industrial construction or stadiums

Advantages:

• Substantial Decrease in Installation Time/Cost

of on-site Labor

• Manufactured in Controlled Location

• Decrease in Potential Delays due to

Uncontrollable Site Factors

• Design-Build Delivery Method

Disadvantages:

• Long Lead Time for Engineering/Design

• Increased Coordination with MEP Engineers for

Penetrations

• Early Design of Steel Embed Connection Locations

• Designing to Withstand Blast Loading

PV Array: Constructability

Sunpower T10 Solar Roof Tiles

• Easy to Install without any need for mechanical roof

Attachments (non-penetrating)

• Large-scale roof tile Arrays can be installed efficiently and

commissioned quickly

• Low-profile design blends into flat roof construction,

operating within the electrical grid network

• Solar Roof Tiles will not interfere with roof drainage

(extremely flexible layout capabilities)

• All Panels Placed on One roof Area, minimizing Wire Runs

Dead Loads

Roof Slab = 6” thick

[(6”)/(12)] x 150 pcf = 75 psf

Assumed Superimposed Dead Load = 20 psf

Total Dead Load = 95 psf (Used 100 psf)

Panel Loads

Panel Weight = 52 lbs per panel Trib. Area = 20’ x 20’

[(52 lb/panel) * (20 panels)] / (20’ x 20’) ]= 2.6 (Used 3 psf)
