Precast Concrete and LID: A Super Bowl-Size Case Study
In 2012, Indianapolis hosted Super Bowl XLVI. In preparation for this huge event, many projects were executed to enhance the experience of the hundreds of thousands who would converge on the city. One of those projects was called the Georgia St. Promenade. This ordinary 4-lane street would be converted to a pedestrian plaza with wooden boardwalks, stone pavers, trees, and landscaping and steel canopies. This 12.5 million dollar project includes the installation of an innovative stormwater system that exemplifies the concept of limited impact development (LID). The system components were originally conceived to be made of cast-in-place (CIP) concrete, but was re-engineered to be a primarily precast concrete project solution. This paper contains information on how precast concrete contributed to meeting a tight schedule, staying under budget, and providing an innovative model for managing storm water in an urban setting.
