What you will learn
My guide was researched from scratch as I could find no other books on the subject. The contents include advice on species and specification, fixing details, and finishing. The book also contains case histories that will inspire you to adopt battens into your designs.

Just because timber battens are the most basic of products does not mean they are not suited for the projects where striking architecture is required. This book can be the difference between a maintenance nightmare or a result that ages gracefully with a long life.
