About this file
The document is a technical specifications file for the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Golf Training Center Turf Replacement project (Solicitation Number 2025-UWMSN-01030-RFB). The specification details four different turf products from Grass Tex: True Turf (Greens Height), Soft Landing (Off Green Fringe Height), Cali Plush (Turf Bunker/Longest Cut), and Range Turf II (Tee Height). Each turf type has specific properties including yarn polymers (nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene), UV stabilization, fabric construction, backing, coating types, and pile heights ranging from 9/16" to 2". The scope of work includes completely removing existing turf and infill, regrading the area, installing limestone base layers, placing new turf according to UW Athletics' approved layout, and completing final installation steps such as seaming, infilling, and grooming.
The technical specifications indicate the project will use Envirofill as the recommended infill material and requires precise installation procedures, including dry fitting seams, proper seaming, infilling to manufacturer-recommended levels, and final brushing/grooming. While specific budget details are not provided, the comprehensive specifications suggest a detailed and professional approach to the turf replacement. The project appears to be a comprehensive renovation of the Golf Training Center's artificial turf surfaces, with careful attention to material selection, installation techniques, and alignment with UW Athletics' specific requirements.
