Technical facts & planning questions

Documented facts

  • Seven sculpture sections bolt together on site.
  • Specs list approximately 13,000 lbs for sculpture with base, plus 16,000 lbs of steel plate anchoring.
  • Specs call for a 12,000-lb-capacity telehandler, site-dependent crane and 60–80-foot bucket lift; anchoring and power need a site-specific plan.

Questions for a new site

  • Which overall height and base configuration applies to the proposed I AM presentation?
  • How will site access affect the artist team’s lifting and assembly plan?
  • Will the presentation include breathing, lighting and a wooden deck?
