life to the University of Nebraska\u2019s football program and its student-athlete facilities through a three-year, two-phase construction effort that balanced modernization with preservation.<\/p>\n<p>The project united a new football performance center and comprehensive student-athlete amenities under one roof. The first phase added athletic medicine, strength and conditioning areas, locker rooms, meeting rooms and football offices.<\/p>\n<p>The second phase delivered an academic center, a full-service dining hall and an experience lobby for visitors and recruits.<\/p>\n<p>Built on a tight, occupied site, the project required that work continue around active game days while protecting the university\u2019s iconic \u201cKissing Columns,\u201d which were relocated to form a new entrance to the stadium.<\/p>\n<p>The construction team faced a range of challenges, including unmapped utilities, hazardous coal-contaminated soil, buried railroad debris and more than 5,000 design clashes\u2014each resolved through 3D modeling and building information modeling (BIM) tools that saved roughly $500,000 and months of delays.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"cap\"><em>Photo by Matt Kocourek Photography<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Maintaining stadium operations during three football seasons demanded close coordination with university staff, fire marshals and event personnel.<\/p>\n<p>When a key stadium gate was blocked, crews built a 30-ft-tall scaffold egress tower with ADA-compliant ramps to preserve crowd access. In addition, weekly \u201cgame day readiness\u201d walks ensured safety and code compliance.<\/p>\n<p>With more than 1.2 million work hours logged and a peak workforce of over 200 tradespeople, the contractor implemented enhanced safety measures beyond standard protocols, including pre-event inspections and continuous public-safety monitoring. Despite shifting leadership and material delays, the project stayed on schedule.<\/p>\n<p>In a proactive move, the contractor resequenced construction to finish the football locker room six months early\u2014aligning with the season start and demonstrating the teamwork that defined the stadium\u2019s latest transformation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.enr.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Osborne Legacy Complex &#13; &#13; Lincoln Neb. &#13; &#13; BEST PROJECT, SPORTS\/ENTERTAINMENT, and Award of Merit, Safety &#13; &#13; Submitted by Hausmann Construction &#13; &#13; Owner: University of Nebraska-Lincoln &#13; &#13; Contractor: Hausmann Construction &#13; &#13; Lead Design Firm: BVH Architecture &#13; &#13; Structural Engineer: Hatfield Group Engineering &#13; &#13; Civil Engineer: Olsson Inc.
