"...We have helped hundreds of golf courses and other properties..."
|
|
Since we have been in business, we have helped hundreds of golf courses and other
properties with diagnostic testing or with materials testing for their construction
project. Below are just a few of the many projects we are proud to have been associated
with.
|
|
Los Angeles Country Club (Los Angeles, CA) - We provided diagnostic testing
that identified the old native greens as having poor physical properties. The problem was
compounded by poor water quality and the inability of the superintendent to effectively
leach salts out of the soil. Our testing provided proof of the need for reconstruction.
During construction, we provided the initial mix design and quality control testing.
|
The Great Lawn of Central Park (New York, NY) - We made suggestions for design
changes that were adopted. We provided the materials testing, including the mix design and
quality control testing, as well as some grow-in recommendations.

Firestone Country Club (Akron, OH) - We provided all of the materials testing,
including the mix design and quality control testing. Firestone was one of the first
PGA Tour Courses to use compost as the organic amendment.

Berman Soccer Field/Cornell University (Ithaca, NY) - We worked with the architect
on the design of this field within a running track. This is the first field to use our
design specification for drainage and the root zone mix. We provided all of the materials
testing, and were retained to oversee the grow-in period. Not meaning to sound like we’re
bragging, this is one of the best athletic complexes anywhere.

SUNY Delhi College Golf Course (Delhi, NY) - A new nine holes was added to this
college course, which serves as a working laboratory for the students in the turf program
here. Faced with a tight budget, we offered suggestions for greens construction methods
that enabled them to use a local sand. We performed all of materials testing at no cost
to the school, and trained the students to perform the quality control testing.
The project was very successful.

|
Buffalo Bills Practice Field (Orchard Park, NY) - We worked with the design
engineers writing specifications for this topsoil field. We provided all of the materials
testing and made several monitoring visits during construction.

Rutgers University (New Brunswick, NJ) - We provided diagnostic (forensic) testing
on new fields that were not designed or constructed properly. We documented the problems
in detail for Rutgers, and provided expert testimony that led to their successful
conclusion to the problem. The fields have since been reconstructed.
