Bill, I do not know what they are.  The flatbed trucks are driving in filled with these things.  They are dark brown.  I though at first glance that they were railroad ties but based on what I can see on my trusty iPad (not a great monitor), yes, they look like they are made of metal and U shaped.

We know they are installing a new roof, new lighting, a new sound system, a new center hung scoreboard and  a new WiFi system.  That much metal seems likely to be part of the new roof someday.  The drawings of the new roof show the exterior panels looking a light tan color.  They might just be wrong; they got the color of the crown truss wrong, so they could get this wrong too, I suppose.

My guess is that the u shaped things are panels that re part of the hard shell perimeter part of the new roof.  They could be for something else.  Maybe vent work for the new AC?  I don’t see why they wouldn’t just use the existing ductwork that has been in place since the dome opened to distribute the cooled air, and even if they decided to install new ductwork, why would they install it now, when it wont be used for a year, when they are on a tight deadline and can’t afford to waste time on things they are not needed immediately?

So my bet is that they are part of the new roof.  But I really do not know for sure.
