The concreting of the main playing surface in the SAP Garden has been completed Next milestone on the road to professional sport// SAP GARDENAfter the concreting of the three training ice surfaces with around 285 cubic metres of concrete each and the installation of the cooling systems was completed a few weeks ago, the foundation for the future main playing surface has now also been laid.On September 27, 2024 (8:30 p.m.), the Red Bulls will play their opening game against the Buffalo Sabres at SAP Garden in front of a sold-out crowd. Everything is already being prepared in the background.
This is how the concreting of the future main playing surface went
After the cooling pipes had been laid and tested for leaks, the concreting work on the main playing surface began on May 23. In a single day, around 260 cubic meters, a total of 625 tons of special concrete, were delivered by truck mixer and poured using a concrete pump.

The first fine distribution and leveling of the future playing surface of the Red Bulls was then carried out with the help of a smoothing machine. The final fine distribution was carried out using a laser-controlled vibrating and smoothing machine. This technique ensures that the height of the concrete does not deviate by more than three millimeters at any point.
The surface was then smoothed throughout with the help of troweling machines to give the surface the necessary fineness and structure.

Initial cooling of the main playing surface in prospect
Finally, the multi-layered concrete surface was covered to prevent it from drying out too quickly. After around four weeks, the initial cooling of the surface can begin before the ice for our home games is created.
