Berry College - Valhalla Stadium

This athletic competition stadium uses a blend of structural CMU, steel, precast concrete, and timber elements to design locker rooms, concessions, entry plaza, a press box, and grandstand seating for over 2,500 spectators.
At the stadium’s entrance, massive arched doors welcome guests. The Berry College mascot is “The Vikings” and the grand arched entrance hearkens to the legendary Viking hall of Valhalla. U+C designed the foundations and 12-foot-tall columns that support the entry’s large decorative metal arch.
The guest service building showcases exposed timber king post trusses.
Under the home grandstand, a new 1-story, 8,900 sf facility provides locker rooms for home and visiting athletes. The facility was designed with masonry walls, steel roof girders, and CFMF roof trusses.
Along the sides of the home grandstands, handsome exposed HSS steel screenwalls provide shaded areas for guests.
