Synopsis
Written especially for architects, this accessible introductory reference on building construction integrates construction issues within the overall design process. The focus throughout is on the architect's concerns with the building as a whole, rather than on the specific concerns of the contractor, supplier or developer. The book covers design issues, building codes, industry standards, architectural components and materials, and construction elements. Case studies of nine different building types provide fresh insight into the range of building uses, size and forms of construction. This book should be of interest to architects.
