Illustrated Building Construction Principles and Practice: Materials, Structural Systems, Construction Methods, Building Enclosures, Finishes, and Sustainable Design - Softcover
Synopsis
SEE HOW BUILDINGS ACTUALLY COME TOGETHER—FROM MATERIALS AND STRUCTURE TO ENCLOSURE AND FINISH
Why are certain materials selected for one building system but not another?
How do foundations, floors, walls, roofs, structural frames, and exterior assemblies work together?
And how can construction choices improve durability, performance, and sustainability?
Illustrated Building Construction: Principles and Practice provides a clear, visually driven guide to the materials, systems, and methods used to turn architectural ideas into finished buildings.
Designed to connect essential theory with practical construction knowledge, this book helps readers understand not only what building components are, but how and why they are assembled, supported, protected, and finished.
Inside, you’ll explore:
• Major construction materials and their practical applications
• Foundations, framing, and structural systems
• Common construction methods and assembly principles
• Walls, roofs, openings, and building-enclosure systems
• Interior and exterior finishes
• The relationship between materials, structure, and constructability
• Sustainable approaches to contemporary building design
• How individual components work together as a complete building
Rather than treating construction topics as isolated facts, this handbook emphasizes the connections between materials, assemblies, systems, and real-world building performance.
Ideal for architecture and construction students, civil and structural engineering learners, construction-management professionals, designers, builders, technicians, and anyone seeking a stronger understanding of modern building technology.
Understand the components. See how the systems connect. Build a stronger foundation in construction practice—add this illustrated reference to your professional library today.
