It is also a commercial source of an essential oil and nutmeg butter.

Metropolitan Architectural Consortium For Education
The Consortium of Local Authorities Special Programme (abbreviated and more commonly referred to as CLASP), was formed in England in 1957 to combine the resources of Local Authorities with the purpose of developing a prefabricated school building programme.

The frames were finished in a variety of claddings and their modular nature could be employed to produce architecturally satisfying buildings. Initially developed solely for schools, the system was also used to provide offices and housing. A ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
