Continuing in the holistic philosophy of the Technologies of
Architecture series, this volume examines the various layers of
knowledge, skills and mechanisms that make up the many approaches
to the essential function of technical design in the creation of
successful buildings.
Well-illustrated with case studies, the author draws on his
extensive experience in architectural education to provide a
detailed description of the development process, acknowledging
traditional solutions whilst also encouraging designers to consider
innovative alternatives. Attention is paid to materials choices,
detail design and specification writing.
Students of architectural technology in particular, but also of
architecture, building surveying and construction will find this
syllabus-relevant title an invaluable asset in embracing their
environmental responsibilities as designers and actively
participating in the development of technical design language.
