Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Why does a brick wall leak when every brick in it is perfect Why does a steel beam that carried 730 kip-feet on Friday buckle under one walking ironworker on Monday And why are the most expensive failures in construction built by people who were trying to do a good job Most references hand you rules. Rules lose the moment someone with more authority tells you to do it differently. This handbook hands you the reasons, so you win that argument in thirty seconds and the building gets built right. What you walk away able to do: - Look at a wall section and know, before anyone breaks ground, whether that wall will drain or fill with water- Size a joist, a header, a beam, a footing, or a pile from scratch, with every step shown and every unit tracked, so you never take a number on faith again- Spot the defect in the one hour it is still visible, before drywall, cladding, or concrete buries it for the life of the building- Defend a flashing detail or a cover dimension in a value-engineering meeting using arithmetic the room cannot dismiss- Trace a failure past the thing that broke to the decision that caused it, so you fix it once instead of three times- Pass a licensing exam with 320 problems worked the way the exam asks them- Inside: 80 worked examples, 320 practice problems with full answer keys, 80 technical illustrations, 13 real failure case studies, span tables, formula summaries, and a 218-term glossary.Scroll up and get your copy. The first mistake you prevent will pay for it many times over.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - SEE HOW BUILDINGS ACTUALLY COME TOGETHER-FROM MATERIALS AND STRUCTURE TO ENCLOSURE AND FINISHWhy 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 buildingRather 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.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Buildings have a significant impact on energy use and the environment. The building Industry is striving to reduce energy consumption and minimize the environmental impact of all buildings. This focus has gained momentum in recent years. Houses have always represented a manageable opportunity for trying out new concepts and confirming performance. Zero-energy buildings are built with significant energy-saving features. The heating and cooling loads are lowered by using high-efficiency equipment, added insulation, high-efficiency windows, natural ventilation, and other techniques. These features vary depending on climate zones in which the construction occurs. Zero energy buildings can be independent from the energy grid supply. The earth is facing potential energy crises. It was this awakening that had lead the researcher to carry the research on net zero buildings: its materials, methods and construction. Civil engineers and architects are the pioneers in building industry and can foster towards reducing global warming by designing buildings that are ecologically safe to the environment.…
