Case Studies
Turf Pitches – Aspects to Consider
When planning a new natural turf pitch, the following investigations need to be carried out:
- A technical appraisal by an agronomist
- A desktop investigation into local site factors
The technical appraisal is a key element which helps to progress the development of a natural turf project. The survey will assess key aspects of the site such as infiltration potential, site topography, soil type, weed impact and root depth.
In addition to this, I would typically carry out a desktop investigation assessing any local factors that may impact on a proposed project (such as flood map planning, land use history and local climate).
I can help you develop the correct specifications for your natural turf pitch, and this would include carrying out a site visit.
