From the Dust Jacket: "UNDERSTANDING BUILDINGS provides students in architecture and other allied disciplines with a basic introduction to building technology in all its main aspects [T]his is the first general, multidisciplinary text to provide an overall explanation of the quite complicated aspects of building technology by looking first at the simple sources and underlying principles that are the key to understanding what is done in practice. In seven chapters, each with a short introduction, the book discusses structure, climate services, utility services, lighting, acoustics, fire safety, and future needs." "UNDERSTANDING BUILDINGS fills the gap between the overly simple and the overly specialized in an admirable way. It covers all aspects of the building construction process by a lucid exposition of principles, without oversimplification, unnecessary jargon, or pedantry . Technical information is introduced in a straightforward, logical manner" -- Eric Dluhosch, MIT. . First US Edition. Oversize Hardcover. Fine condition/Very Good dust jacket.
