The U.S. Bank Stadium, with its unique, bold, and iconic design, is the proud new home of the Minnesota Vikings football team, other sports and entertainment events, and was the host stadium for Super Bowl LII on February 4, 2018. Gripple Inc. worked with the Harris Mechanical team on this project-Minnesota’s largest commercial construction project to date–to provide cable hanger solutions for all of the ductwork and VAV boxes being suspended. This included 144” x 77” rectangular duct, and 2,500 feet of 84” spiral duct that was being suspended 200 feet above ground level. In total, more than 3 million pounds of sheet metal and 250 variable-air volume boxes were suspended with over 200,000 Gripple cable hangers.
