Landscape Architects' Surfacing Spec Guide: PIP, Turf & Epoxy in CSI Format
CSI MasterFormat-aligned spec language, submittal checklists, and design-detail recommendations for surfacing finishes — written for landscape architects and designers.
Manufacturer literature is marketing-grade, not spec-grade. The result: vague specs that let bidders substitute inferior product, blow your design intent, and saddle the owner with warranty problems.
This guide gives you spec language you can drop into your CSI documents.
