Site Design

Site Design

Successful sports construction begins long before breaking ground. At Capital Sports Construction, our Site Design services lay the technical foundation for safe, efficient, and long-lasting athletic facilities. We combine field experience, engineering principles, and careful planning to ensure every project is designed for proper drainage, durability, accessibility, and regulatory compliance.

Whether you’re building a synthetic turf field, a track, or a complete multi-sport complex, our design process sets the stage for a smooth, predictable construction phase.



Why Site Design Matters

Professional site design reduces risk, prevents unexpected cost overruns, and ensures your facility performs as intended.

Key advantages include:

  • Accurate grading and earthwork planning
  • Optimized drainage systems to control water flow and prevent surface damage
  • Efficient use of space based on athletic program needs
  • Compliance with local codes and permitting requirements
  • Better long-term performance with fewer maintenance issues
  • Clear construction documentation for predictable installation timelines

Our team focuses on designing surfaces and environments engineered for heavy use and long-term reliability.


Our Site Design Process

1. Initial Consultation & Site Assessment

We begin with an evaluation of the property, understanding soil conditions, elevation, utilities, existing structures, and intended athletic use.

2. Conceptual Planning

We outline layout options, spatial planning, and design recommendations to help you make informed decisions early.

3. Grading & Drainage Design

Proper drainage is critical for sports surfaces. We create plan sets that include:

  • Subsurface and surface drainage routes
  • Slope calculations
  • Water management solutions
  • Erosion control strategies

4. Construction Documentation

We prepare detailed drawings, specifications, and instructions that guide the construction phase and keep the project aligned with regulatory and safety standards.

5. Coordination & Review

We work with engineers, inspectors, and other stakeholders to ensure plans are cohesive, accurate, and ready for execution.


Typical Design Deliverables

Depending on project scope, your site design package may include:

  • Grading plans
  • Drainage layouts
  • Field and track layout diagrams
  • Utility considerations
  • ADA and accessibility planning
  • Construction notes and specifications
  • Material recommendations

These deliverables bring clarity to every stage of the project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions that help guide project decisions.

We construct a wide range of athletic surfaces, including football fields, soccer fields, baseball and softball outfields, multi-purpose fields, and full track systems. Whether the project involves natural grass or synthetic turf, we provide complete design and construction services tailored to each facility’s needs.
Yes. We provide turnkey solutions that include site evaluation, grading plans, drainage design, base work, and full field or track installation. Our team ensures every phase aligns with performance, safety, and long-term durability requirements.
Most synthetic turf field installations take 6–10 weeks depending on site conditions, weather, permitting, and whether major base work or drainage improvements are required. We provide project timelines upfront and keep clients informed throughout the process.
A well-maintained synthetic turf field generally lasts 8–12 years. Actual lifespan depends on usage volume, maintenance routines, and environmental conditions. We also offer resurfacing options to extend field life while keeping downtime minimal.
Yes. We provide ongoing maintenance support, grooming recommendations, repairs, and resurfacing for existing turf and track systems. Even if we didn’t build the original field, we can evaluate the surface and recommend the best path forward.
Absolutely. We help schools, municipalities, and private organizations understand project costs, construction phases, and long-term maintenance considerations. Our team ensures clients have clear expectations and a realistic plan before work begins.
Yes. We install new running tracks and resurface existing ones using industry-standard track materials designed for performance and durability. Our process includes base preparation, striping, event markings, and long-term maintenance guidance.
We serve clients across the Southeast, completing projects for schools, parks, municipalities, and private sports facilities. If your project is outside the region, we can discuss availability and logistics on a case-by-case basis.
Our team focuses exclusively on athletic field and track projects, giving us deep expertise in performance surfaces, proper base construction, drainage, and long-term reliability. We prioritize communication, accurate scheduling, and high-quality workmanship from start to finish.
