If I was a reporter for the PS, I would be making a few calls to people who know about acoustics and stadiums. Architects, scientists, physicists, etc.
Syracuse.com fired it's best reporter. Now the only coverage we'll get is click bait articles from Brent Axe.
IiRC, they did say the center roof would have the same sound properties as the old. (There are other solutions that would offer more sound absorption). If it is exposed steel on the fixed surface? You'd guess reflection would be more.
I am guessing that all the gaps between the newer PTFE panels have not been closed. At least they were not when this picture was taken. The plastic protects the field from getting wet.
Monster truck rally???
US Bank Stadium (home of the Vikings) installed $4.6 million black curtains before the 2019 Final Four to block out sunshine\light and keep the lighting conditions consistent for the basketball games. The black curtains can be slid into the roof panels only when needed like for basketball games and concerts (it's supposed to help acoustics & give dark room look).
You haven't been inside yet, how can you make that call?From a natural lighting perspective, I miss the old roof. The new PTFE may be more transparent but there's less surface area overall where this can shine through. Reminds me of the Italian duomos.
So if there’s a satellite showing a hurricane in the gulf we can’t be sure unless we’re actually there in person? At what point does video evidence become useful to you?
Your saying the old roof was better, but multiple people here have often said that the old roof always made us look drab and dark on tv. We shall see when we get in there I guess.
I’m sure the field lighting is improved but the overall amount of ambient natural light is reduced if that makes sense. For night games this won’t be an issue- if we ever get lucky enough for a night kickoff again.
is 2 or 3 games the season?
I think Mike Vick had a pretty good idea too, compliments of Dwight Freeney.
What a complete joke that is.
I'll put this here as well.
'We did not start out with the goal of building one of the largest centerhung systems in the world, but the more we talked through it with the team, the more we realized that we could accomplish something very special while still remaining within the project budget. Besides the new centerhung, there are new high-resolution end zone displays to enhance the viewing experience in the building.'
