Download or read book Landscape Architecture Documentation Standards written by Design Workshop and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-10-26 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SUPERB EXECUTION RELIES UPON RIGOROUS PROJECT DOCUMENTATION A project will only be built as well as it is documented. This publication focuses on the key documentation needs of the landscape architectural design and construction documentation process. That includes both "design documentation" and "construction documentation" as well as all that which occurs in the transition from one phase to the other. Documentation requirements include those components necessary to explore and define design intent, logic, physical proposals, and ultimately, the specific components included within construction and bid documents. Discover how proper documentation facilitates every stage of the design process from pre-planning to construction, and leads to a highly resolved built outcome. Understand the principles behind these documentation practices. Implement best practices specific to each documentation phase and drawing, from title block and cover sheet design to soil plans and plant protection. Organize keynoting systems, cross-referencing and interdisciplinary coordination amongst multiple consultants and vendors. Study sample project documents from a leading landscape architecture firm to better understand the elements and benefits of complete and well-coordinated project documentation. These standards have been time-tested by over 150 designers at the industry leading landscape architecture firm Design Workshop, reflecting a range of project types, including parks, streetscapes, urban spaces and over-structure construction. This guide shares the methods behind the success, to facilitate exceptional built outcomes through principled documentation practices.

Download or read book Career as a Landscape Architect written by Institute For Institute For Career Research and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-05-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOME OF THE MOST INTERESTING careers available today can be found in the field of landscape architecture. A landscape architect plans and designs land areas for parks, recreational facilities, private homes, campuses and other open spaces. The architect makes these outdoor spaces functional and attractive while ensuring they exist in harmony with the natural environment. The profession calls for creative and artistic skills as well as technical knowledge. Landscape architects play a vital role in protecting the environment. They make sure their projects meet the needs of the people who visit, while preserving nature itself. Their projects aim to reduce pollution and conserve scarce water. In addition to conceiving and helping to create man-made settings, landscape architects also restore natural places disturbed by human intervention, such as wetlands, mining areas and estuaries. They also work on historical preservation and cultural projects. Landscape architects earn on average almost $70,000 annually, and salaries are expected to increase. There are currently more than 20,000 jobs, with almost 15 percent growth in employment expected over the coming decade. Jobs can be found in cities large and small, in every state and many countries around the world. Many landscape architects work for private consulting firms, academic institutions, nonprofits and government agencies. Others own their own firms, either alone, or in a group partnership with other professionals, which can include residential and commercial architects. They collaborate with civil engineers, construction contractors, urban planners, garden designers, and other professionals to create projects that are attractive and useful. It takes at least seven years of education and training before you can receive your license as a landscape architect. You need a bachelor's degree to get started, followed by additional training as an intern or apprentice working under a licensed landscape architect, before you can be eligible to seek a state license. Master's degree programs are also available for graduate study. Would you be a good fit as a landscape architect? As in many other technically-oriented fields, an analytical mind and attention to details are necessary. An affinity with nature and artistic talent, are also helpful. Can you visualize better ways to arrange and enhance a natural setting? Could you translate your ideas into working models? Do you communicate well, speaking and in writing? Are you proficient with computer software? Can you keep pace with innovative techniques and regulatory changes? Would you like to create parks, resorts, campgrounds, golf courses, or school campuses that provide a relaxing, attractive setting for others? If you have good analytical, interpersonal, artistic and technical skills, you can enjoy a fulfilling career as a landscape architect. The work can be challenging and the hours are sometimes long. However, with the right training and experience, you can join others who achieve personal and professional satisfaction in landscape architecture.
