  • Allianz Field Lights up Minnesota
    ALLIANZ FIELD LIGHTS UP MINNESOTA Design and Innovation Drive Iconic MLS Stadium Multiple iterations of professional soccer have existed in Minnesota since the 1970s, however, the state never boasted a dedicated soccer stadium. That changed in April 2019 with the opening of Allianz Field in St. Paul, the new home of Minnesota United FC. At long last, in redeveloping a contaminated, brownfield site, professional soccer finally has a permanent home in Minnesota. The owner desired a home that would compete against the best international venues in the world serving as an iconic piece of art and architecture for the team and state. Creating a world-class stadium showcased the multiple ways structural engineering can influence a project. For the venue’s most recognizable element—the dynamic, signature façade—the owner desired a material that was weathertight yet transparent; strong yet flexible; and would provide a variety of colors and textures. No material available on the market met those competing requirements. Walter P Moore collaborated with material manufacturers to develop a clear polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) laminate with a fiberglass yarn weave. The result was a façade that changes based on how sunlight reflects off of the material during the day and how variable LED backlighting shines through the skin creating a glowing lantern effect in a myriad of colors and effects at night. Integrating the structural frame and fabric membrane analysis allowed for the optimization of the entire structural system resulting in an extremely cost-effective design without compromising the owner and architect’s ambitious design vision. 800.364.7300 walterpmoore.com PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS CASE STUDY CASE INNOVATIVE CLADDING MATERIAL Walter P Moore partnered with global membrane specialist Saint-Gobain to develop a material that extends the capabilities of traditional open weave fiberglass membranes by laminating the fiberglass yarn weave with a clear polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
