Paycor Stadium Floor Flatness Testing and Laser Scanning Project in Cincinnati, Ohio

TrueScan provided 3D laser scanning and floor flatness testing services at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio to support replacement of the stadium’s synthetic turf.

Working with sister company Sportworks Design, TrueScan used high-density laser scanning to evaluate the field surface, identify settlement patterns, and calculate the amount of stone needed for remediation before the existing turf was removed.

The Challenge

Before replacing the synthetic turf, Sportworks Design needed to understand settlement patterns beneath the field and determine how much stone would be required to correct them.

The field also remained in use, so the evaluation had to be completed within a compressed schedule.

TrueScan’s Approach

TrueScan used 3D laser scanners to collect approximately 2.1 billion points of data across the field surface.

The data was translated into a detailed map showing dips and undulations, which helped identify settlement patterns associated with old utilities and calculate the amount of stone needed for remediation.

After the turf replacement was complete, TrueScan performed additional analysis of the finished field.
