Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Oslo Golfklubb, in Oslo, Norway, highlighting its drainage system renovation. States that the system used was "a series of inter-connected, 360-degree spoke-and-wheel drainage systems underlying the entire golf course, complemented by extensive sand-capping in the fairways - a measure usually reserved for putting surfaces." Describes Sportcrete, "a revolution in bunker drainage as it eliminates the perched water table in bunkers and protects the sand from contamination." Suggests that "without the extraordinary drainage improvements, none of the design work would have been worth doing." |
