FAST-AR51Acad. year: 2011/2012
Design of a structure is only a part of system of activities leading to final and successfull realisation of a structure. After finishing building activities it is very important to integrate the structure to the environment. The structure should naturaly merge with the surrounding. Despite the structure shape, the terrain adjustment might significantly help in this affort.
