Opis

The four volumes of 'Landscape Construction' cover all aspects of hard landscape building and construction work. A knowledge of basic construction is an essential part of practice for the landscape designer, architect and surveyor and these volumes give straightforward and clearly illustrated information on each area.

Recenzje

'The text is well written, a good mixture of technical and background narrative, interspersed with well tabulated technical detail. The series provides an immediate source of information and its strength is to provide the theoretical checks when developing ideas.' The Horticulturist
