Brad Stegeman, architect at Simon Oswald Architecture Inc., specified metal roofs and brick for R. Marvin Owens Field at Columbia College to connect the design with the campus. “We wanted a unifying look on campus so we chose materials that matched the aesthetics of other structures on campus including a newly constructed science building nearby,” he says. “We also chose the standing seam roof for its low maintenance and durability knowing that as part of a college these buildings would be there for a long time.”
All-Spec Metal Systems LLC installed 7,900 square feet of Englert Inc.’s 24-gauge, 16-inchwide Series 2500 standing seam metal roof panels in Dark Bronze on a locker room building and concession stand building with overhangs.
The soccer field project features two sets of bleachers to seat 600 people, showers, laundry facilities and a press box in the locker room building. It is the primary recreation playing surface on campus and is used for intramurals sports, summer camps and soccer tournaments.
