Construction Workers Celebrate Topping Out
On Thursday, more than 1,200 construction workers, executives and staff from Mortenson Construction, Thor Construction, HKS, the Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority and the Vikings celebrated the stadium’s concrete “topping out” milestone. The ceremony marked the completion of the structural concrete in the project, a major benchmark that included more than 10,000 concrete trucks delivering 100,000 cubic yards of concrete, or enough to fill more than 30 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Roof Ridge Truss Connected
This week’s second milestone involved the connection of the roof ridge truss that spans the length of the stadium from east to west.
