Volume four of "Landscape Construction" covers the construction and placing of steps, ramps and small structures in the landscape. The small structures described are mainly of masonary or timber and include bridges, walkways, screens, shelters and pergolas; some will require concrete foundations, masonry piers and a timber superstructure. Some reference will be made to simple shelters and jetties. Landscape design must be based upon a fundamental knowledge of static structures and why they stand up to stresses and strains of weather and subsidence. These principles form the basis of the structures discussed in the book, but dynamic structures such as large scale working windmills are not discussed. Chapters one to four cover the materials and details used in small structures and their preservation. Chapters five to seven discuss the principles of design and construction, while chapters eight and nine cover the detailed construction of small bridges and boardwalks. Finally chapter ten deals with the effect of shading and lighting on the landscape and various techniques of creating light and shade.
