It looks a lot better in application than it did on the renderings, that is for sure.

It conveniently resembles the female reproductive system so that eventuality is covered.

At some point that will go from being female body-positive to sexist and misogynistic.

True, but the shape and what it implies will still be valid.

Materials question:

on the Longhorn we have orange, white, and blue

and on the main structure we have green and blue showing

I understand that multiple materials and layers go into the process but I'm curious what each color represents? Which ones are structural panels? Which ones are wraps or sealants? And what is the final orange layer made of?

Anyone ever ask Cdain how the hell he gets these photos?

Green is a zip board system.

Blue is a liquid applied waterproofing membrane

The white is a film applied to the outside of the orange panels to protect them

The orange panels appear to be ACM panels (aluminum).

Has construction started on the NEZ?  The bid docs required it to begin on December 14, 2020.

maybe that Cdain guy can turn around next time

Are the areas around downtown Austin/Campus/DKR prohibited flight space for drones?

answered my own question. Looks like you can fly over the stadium as long as its not during a sporting event.

Should be able to see the NEZ construction from the street, especially on the opposite end of the stadium. Anyone seen it?

Got damn... You do any plumbing?

[EE2B 1561]

I fixed your mom’s plumbing last night.

Impressed they included the ears, assumed they would just be skipped over for ease of construction.

I still can't believe we carved a giant longhorn head into our stands, but I don't dislike it like I did at first. Looking forward to seeing it lit up at night during a game.

are they still installing vertical video boards on each side of Godzillatron 2.0?

Still dislike the party decks. Not the idea necessarily, but the placement is less than ideal.

Longhorn is unfinished

Green is gyp sheathing, blue is vapor barrier

Structural panels aren't a thing here, is a concrete reinforced structure with cladding. Some cladding acts as a wall (curtain wall) but the rest is just veneer.

I'll go take a peak and see what that orange later is, probably paint on a metal panel.

Yup, exactly what I was going to say. Couldn’t have said it better myself.

it looks weird how the party decks are just on top of old seats.

Somewhere an Aggot engineer just had an idea about how to squeeze more seats minus a view into Kyle Field.
