DESIGN CRITERIA
Department of Intercollegiate Athletics
University of Colorado at Boulder
Introduction and Overview
The University of Colorado at Boulder is accepting proposals from general contractors for design and
installation of a removable aluminum fence to be located at the stadium, and bids for installation of eight
stone monuments. The aesthetic design of the fence will match the existing fence at Franklin Field. The
stone monuments will match the University campus vernacular marking the entrances to the stadium. The
fence panels will be removable to provide safety for guests attending events at the stadium.
Part One – Stadium Fence Design Build Criteria
The primary goals of the Stadium Fence will be:
 Create a safe barriers and traffic flow for crowds during large events.
 Panels that can be repositioned and or completely removed.
 Removable Posts that can be moved by an individual.
 Design to include wiring for future audio/visual equipment
 Hardware and connections designed to be safely opened by an individual.
 Material selection and finishes that will be durable for multiple seasons.
Stadium Fence

Project Site:
a. The majority of the fence will be constructed within the first 12” of the plaza along Colorado
Avenue, outside with the queuing lines located inside the stone monuments. – See
attached plan
b. Stadium Plaza is constructed of 4”x8” concrete paving stone laid on sand.
c. Existing utilities will require potholing by contractor.
