If we have anyone out there who is familiar with stadium construction, I have a question. Once all of the west side "rackers" are poured, today or tommorrow, will the next step be to finish the east side rackers before working on the actual seating components? Also, do they "pour" the concrete seating (that go on the rackers), or, are they prefab concrete that they simply place on the rackers? They may wait until the bowl seating is in place before moving forward with any of the above.

I find the stadium construction fasinating to follow, even if we only have one camerera in place.

the east side rakers will be done first...I think the seats will be prefab and put in place...this is the same question I asked 2-3 weeks ago. I think most stadiums use prefab seating placed by a crane.

Might be similiar to truss construction. They prefab them offsite because you can get them more square, etc., and they just fit into place. I imagine this is for similar reasons?

they need to prefab measure my arse first so they can get mine custom fit.
