“creates a safety culture on the job where all the workers are really looking out for each other,” DeLong said.


Second Half Push to Completion


Construction of the Chase Center


project was approximately 60 percent complete as of this July. If it tracks anything like the Warriors’ third- quarter push in many of their games, the project is clearly headed for a strong finish. Steady progress is evident in


virtually every corner of the project site. A symphony of seven large cranes, including two crawler cranes and five tower cranes, are frequently in motion, overseen by a full time “crane boss” who coordinates their every move. A major focus of work this summer


was structural steel erection, including installing the long-span roof trusses. Te high roof membrane work began in mid-July, and the metal panel and glass curtainwall exterior is soon to be installed. Interior trade work was progressing from floor to floor at a rapid pace. Te entire team is focused on the


key project milestone of having the building “dried-in” by November 1, allowing finish work to proceed unabated for the remaining nine months of construction. Final certif- icate of occupancy is scheduled for August 1, 2019. Tat is a date that Mortenson | Clark has no intention of missing, say McLamb and DeLong. Both men plan to be on hand when the Warriors play their first game in the new arena next October. Te opportunity to see fans’


reaction is one of the biggest rewards of working on a sports and enter- tainment project like this, DeLong noted. “When you open an office tower


or a hospital, the opening event is basically handing over the keys to the owner,” he said. “In the sports world, the opening event is shared with 18,000 people enjoying the fruits of your labor. It is something to be there – a really great feeling. Tat’s part of the reason why I do what I do.” 
