Corner of Playing Surface Drainage - Reds Urban Youth Academy

The SmartTurf team has been in Cincinnati recently to construct four playing surfaces for the new Reds Urban Youth Academy.

The previous playing surfaces were not laser graded.  To bring the fields to grade and laser grade the finish grade, additional topsoil was needed.  Kokosing Construction Company, the mass excavation firm for the project imported the topsoil and placed to +/- 1inch.  When this phase of the project was completed, the existing catch basins were well below finish grade at both the LF and RF corners.  So, the decision was made to pour a couple concrete curbs.  Here are a couple photos of the curbs.
