- maintenance, including the results of TRADA's research into low-cost removal of staining

- softwoods and hardwoods commonly used for cladding

- specification checklist.

'At Architype we favour timber as a form of natural and attractive cladding. The detailing is key and this book has served as a valuable resource, allowing for quick and easy referencing to the essentials of timber cladding and its detailing'
