Abstract/Contents: | Describes a study "to evaluate the relative importance of sand particle size, particle size distribution, particle shape and roundness, plant roots and root-zone water contentin the stability of a sand-based sport field surface." Details how five different sands (Hallett mason sand, Hallett concrete sand, Sidley Proangle sand, Bunker white sand, and Hallett mason sand + 15% soil) "were filled in the plots and compacted with a vibrating Whacker." Preliminary results indicate that there are "differences in stability between the treatments without the factor of plant roots." |
