Career - Landscape Architect
I need assistance to choose
Landscape Architects will study and discuss designs, costs and construction of projects with clients and talk to architects, engineers and other professionals, and gather information on factors such as historical and natural conservation requirements, soil structure, drainage, rock features, existing and proposed buildings, and sun and shade movements. They will draw up site plans outlining site development, discuss plans with clients and seek approval and will prepare specifications, arrange cost estimates, list building materials required and detail working drawings of the site, showing features such as location of buildings, roads and walkways; land contours and drainage systems; soil conservation measures; and the vegetation to be planted, retained or removed. They will investigate the heritage of sites and make plans for the management of open-space areas and will use computer and video simulation packages to develop broadscale landscape plans and will also supervise site work. They will also advise on landscape problems concerned with environmental planning.
