The document summarizes the process of creating a sustainable fabric wrap for the 2012 London Olympic Stadium. Key points:
1. Dow Chemical, Rainier Industries, and Cooley Group partnered to develop a fabric wrap using sustainable materials and processes that met the specifications for wrapping the stadium.
2. Creating the wrap involved significant problem-solving as the initial materials did not meet standards. Dow and Cooley developed a new formulation for the fabric.
3. Producing the fabric proved challenging as well and required multiple attempts to get a smooth, defect-free material through the extrusion process used to apply the various layers of the fabric.
4. After several iterations, the team was finally able to produce

Blue Marble used GIS analysis to identify potential sites for a new MLS stadium in St. Louis. They analyzed elevation, land use, soils, roads and county boundaries to identify 94 sites meeting criteria. These were narrowed to 4 final sites based on attributes like slope, perimeter to area ratio, and proximity to transportation. Site 1 is highlighted as the best site due to its downtown location, access to population and public transportation.
