It looks at the requirements under the Australian Standards tht relate to timber use in playgrounds and assesses their suitability and concludes that they give no design certainty and can even be very dangerous. The three species groups that designers are likely to encounter hardwood, cypress and pine in both sawn and round are investigated. Other areas examined in detail are how to engage with the ground, how to detail joints and timber preservation. The book concludes with a design checklist and a number of case histories.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralph Bailey,Edgar Stubbersfield\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0648678148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780648678144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rachel Stubbersfield\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.42d","brand":"Ralph Bailey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48483623895295,"sku":"9780648678144","price":44.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c7dd2540-dae3-488c-9a6e-6cd75d503790.jpg?v=1778039629","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/timber-in-playgrounds-ralph-bailey-9780648678144","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
