Louisville Slugger Field

A cornerstone element in the Louisville Kentucky Riverfront Project, Slugger Field required a fast turnaround time the project had to be fabricated, galvanized, and installed in just one month. Conducted in a climate controlled facility, the galvanizing process is not dependent on weather conditions for completion, so the pieces are in and out in quick order.

As high pedestrian traffic was expected, portions of the project received extra protection by means of a duplex system of paint over galvanized steel. By combining the powerful barrier and cathodic protection of galvanized steel with an additional coating of paint, the expected life of the project is expanded by 1.5 to 2 times. Galvanized steel will keep this stadium safe and looking good for all the little sluggers that will visit in the future.
