A New Field for Southeastern University - Infield Mix Installation

Back to the project at Southeastern University in Lakeland, FL.

After the outfield rootzone was laser graded, the next task was installation of 4 inches of infield mix.  For this project, Dura Edge Classic was installed at a four inch depth over a compacted subgrade:




Material was off loaded directly on the subgrade and pushed to the edges.  Careful attention was paid to not mix the subgrade and the infield mix.  Edges were boarded and infield mix and rootzone were laser graded:






While setting the edges the rest of the infield mix was installed in 2 inch lifts and rolled with a 3 don duel drum roller.  After rolling, the infield was irrigated:



The following day the infield was laser graded again and final work was completed in anticipation of sod installation.
