This third volume of "Landscape Construction" covers the design and construction of simple earth and water retaining structures as far as the normal scope of landscape work is concerned. Major civil engineering work such as highway embankments and reservoirs are excluded. Chapters one to four cover the simpler forms of earth retention likely to be part of a landscape contract, divided into: methods of construction that rely on the soil as part of the structure; various types of gravity retaining walls; and those which are constructed independently of the soil. Chapters five to nine deal with all types of water retaining construction, from "natural" lakes to small ornamental pools, and the construction of natural and ornamental watercourses are also covered.

Industry Reviews

'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
