Have released their new "Athletic Field Construction Manual"
"Bringing uniformity to the construction of grass athletic fields, this manual is long overdue as a staple reference for those in the sports turf industry. It establishes standards for the design and construction of the root zone. The standards are based on a classification system (1-5) for the athletic field which is primarily based on the root zone material and the provision of drainage, irrigation and lights. Also included are permitting hours and maintenance costs for field categories; a checklist to evaluate the condition of existing fields; and more than 20 diagrams outlining the approved field dimensions for most field sports using a turf surface."
