Course content: The aim of the subject Construction and Preservation Landscape Architecture Objects is to prepare the student to conduct investment in building and maintaining landscape architecture structures of different complexity. Legal, formal and practical actions connected with building and maintaining landscape architecture structures are discussed at the meetings (lectures, classes). A substantial part of the lectures is devoted to discussing the documentation of landscape architecture structures and formal procedures connected with the construction of landscape architecture structures. Technical documentation of the works, the principles of quantity survey of the works. The technology and organisation of construction works, the rights and duties of construction process participants. The rules of keeping the construction logbook, the documentation for works acceptance. Preparation for earthworks, the technology of earthworks, land modelling, demarcating slopes, embankments, excavations. Protecting trees, shrubs and soil on the construction site. Preparatory works, salvage treatments, maintenance, documentation. Recommendations for the development of green areas. Performing gardening conservation works in historic garden sites. Reconstruction and adaptation of historic sites to new functions. The course of proceedings during construction for the structures listed in the register of monuments. Plant cultivation and fertilisation techniques.

Assessment methods: Receiving a credit for excercises: - elaboration of construction design (executive phase) for a given object along with detailed technical specification of taking over and execution of the works and evaluation of the project implementation; - evaluation of 3 work stages: analyses and problem studies, design solution, ability to prepare a specification of proceedings related to works execution and taking over; - before a project is elaborated, student carries out a detailed dendrological inventorying, determines trees and shrubs for cutting, prepares a request regarding cutting (including attachments), specifies conceivable cutting charges and accomplishes stand project for trees selected for preservation. Receiving a credit for lectures: written examination e.g. grade obtained at classes (50%) + grade obtained at lectures (50%)
