Abstract/Contents: | Compares artificial turf to natural turf and discusses maintenance, cost, and safety concerns. Concludes that "there are sports complexes where wear is so intense and weather so adverse that real turf can no longer answer the need. There are...special applications where a non-turf type of cover may be useful." |
