Understanding Housing Defects provides a concise, coherent and
comprehensive introduction to the causes, investigation and
diagnosis of defects in domestic buildings. For this new edition,
many of the chapters have been substantially updated and new
photographs have been added. There are four new chapters covering:
How defects are defined An overview of building and architectural
history External joinery and painted finishes Environmental and
health- related building problems Many of the 21 chapters cover a
specific building element and include a brief introduction setting
out construction principles and the evolution of current practice.
All of the chapters consider the identification, cause and
diagnosis of common (and sometimes not so common) defects. This
book is a must have for all those students and practitioners who
require a broad understanding of housing defects. Building
surveyors, general practice surveyors, architects, estate agents,
housing officers and anyone involved in the management and
maintenance of property as well as its construction will benefit
hugely from this highly informative full-colour text. Written by
the authors of The Construction of Houses, the book is also the
natural companion to this bestselling textbook.
