Abstract:
Emerging technologies, such as laser scanning, allow concrete contractors to more accurately and efficiently estimate quantities, visually plan concrete placements and site logistics, and more effectively coordinate the systems that go into each project. The article discusses how multiple technology advancements were applied in the restoration and expansion of the historic Wrigley Field ballpark in Chicago, IL, known as the 1060 Project.
