Introduction to Building provides a comprehensive introduction to
various aspects of development and associated building procedures,
from initial planning and design through procurement of building
work, contractual arrangements and construction techniques. Now in
its Fifth Edition, this popular text continues to present an
authoritative overview of the many design and practical
considerations associated with the creation and maintenance of
modern buildings, including repair of existing buildings and
traditional construction procedures. Topics covered include the
functional requirements of a building: appearance, durability,
dimensional suitability, strength and stability, weather exclusion,
sound control, thermal comfort, fire protection, lighting and
ventilating, sanitation and drainage, security, cost,
sustainability, building processes, the building team,
communication and construction methods.
