SPORTS FIELD ENGINEERING
Sports Fields endure a high level of competitive wear and tear during their lifetime. Infrastructure requirements for these facilities vary greatly from those of typical landscape improvements: design approaches need to maximize performance and minimize long-term maintenance needs. A consultant with sports field-specific design and construction experience is an essential component of a successful project. JVA has extensive experience in all aspects of synthetic turf systems, track and field design, and sports field site design.
SYNTHETIC TURF SYSTEMS
A synthetic turf field is more than just a green carpet with black rubber: it’s a complete system that requires an engineered solution. JVA’s innovative and sustainable design approach results in efficient, high-performing systems that will serve your facility for years to come. A complete, properly designed, synthetic turf system integrates the performance needs of the end user and owner with site-specific drainage and stabilization requirements. JVA’s thorough modeling of synthetic turf systems yields cost-effective results for all projects.
Key Design Features

TRACK & FIELD DESIGN
Track and field design requires knowledge of event requirements and product types to ensure the best possible performance for the intended use. Attention to every detail is necessary to maintain compliance with track and field governing bodies.
Track & Field Design Capabilities
• Track Layout to fit the Project Site
• All-Weather Track Product Selection and System Design
• Track & Field Event Layout and Design
• Event Specific Design to meet NFHS, NCAA, or IAAF Requirements
• Innovative Designs to meet the Project Budget
SPORTS FIELD SITE DESIGN
Proper design of the site around a sports field will keep the facility and all of the improvements in top condition for years to come. Improper design adjacent to a sports field can lead to premature deterioration of the installed products. JVA has the knowledge and experience to assist with any sports field design.

SUSTAINABILITY
JVA’s LEED Accredited Professionals are committed to “green” design. We limit the amount of materials transported to and from the site with our effective cross-section design methodology. We also use runoff control methods to minimize or improve your site’s stormwater impact.
We also can assist with other ecological building solutions. Another clean, reliable, and cost-effective sustainable energy solution is solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays.
