M.A. Mortenson Co.

Scope Of Work

With seating for up to 70,000, U.S. Bank Stadium is an architectural landmark featuring a fixed-roof design with the largest span of transparent ETFE material in the U.S.; five large glass pivoting doors; zinc metal exterior panels; seven levels connected by stairs, ramps, escalators and elevators; two concourses with 360-degree circulation and various views into the bowl; and the closest seats to the field in the NFL.

Further enhancing the fan experience, the stadium is outfitted with the latest in sports technology. Mortenson installed the stadium’s state-of-the-art technology systems including 1600 DAS antennas, 300 amplifiers and more than 47 miles of fiber optic cable that provide a robust network to support very high upload and download speeds for nearly 70,000 fans.

In addition to being the  home of the NFL Minnesota Vikings, the multi-purpose stadium will be available 355 days a year as a Minnesota asset for public use, including high school and amateur sports, cultural celebrations and entertainment events.

The construction of U.S. Bank Stadium set a  standard for sports facilities. Following a groundbreaking ceremony on December 3, 2013, the stadium was built in two-and-a-half years and completed six weeks early, much faster than its NFL counterparts.

The project also achieved unparalleled workforce participation and local business involvement that far exceeded the established goals for the project. More than 8,000 workers committed more than four million hours on the project.
