-: My name is Andrew Turner,
I'm an assistant project manager for AECOM Hunt.
We specialize in sports and aviation
And I get often asked that question a lot, what do we do?
And it's quite simple, we really manage construction
and we manage the construction process.
So from start to finish, we do pre-construction,
making sure the design is all squared away
and we make sure that everything fits correctly
and that everything is gonna be able to be coordinated
and all fit together pretty well.
For sports and aviation, we do sports arenas and stadiums
and as far as aviation, we do airports
and terminals and such like that.
So we oversee the whole construction process
in terms of schedules and cost analysis
and making sure that the whole process
is completed on time and on budget.
One of the most recent projects that we finished
was the Atlanta Falcons Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
It just opened in late August.
It was a pretty high-profile stadium,
has a very specialized roof.
There's eight retractable individual pieces to the roof.
It's supposed to be like a camera lens,
so when it opens, it retracts just the same as a camera,
and each one weighs over 16,000 tons, it's incredible.
In terms of me being on site,
it's really a little bit more flexible.
There's a lot of field issues that need to be coordinated
and recorded, tracked, and that's part of me being on site.
And I can be on site anywhere from half the day to
maybe an hour on the project.
But a lot of my work specifically
is done behind the scenes, so I do spend quite a bit of time
behind a desk and making sure
that proper paperwork is filled out
and really just making sure everything behind the scenes
is getting done so that we can continue to progress.
