Recently, the Cornell Urban
Horticulture Institute,
headed by
Nina Bassuk, pub-
l i s h e d a f r e e
57-page Comprehensive
Guide to CU-Structural
Soil.
This is THE pub-
lication to share with
your municipality's engi-
neers and leadership to
show the why and how
of CU-Structural Soil.
Also known as CU-Soil,
it is a two-part sys-
tem comprised of a
rigid stone "lattice"
that meets engineer-
ing requirements for a
load-bearing paving
base, and a quanti-
ty of uncompacted
soil that supports
tree root growth.
Filled with excellent
photographs and helpful diagrams, the
Guide answers your questions, gives
case studies, and provides extensive
installation specs and design details.
