Buildings don't just appear. While the aesthetics and theory of architecture
have their glamor, architecture would not exist without the hands-on,
nuts-and-bolts process of construction. Construction of Architecture: From
Design to Built gives architects, contractors, managers, trade workers, and
anyone else involved in a building project a thorough overview of the process of
taking or converting a fine design concept from a paper exercise to a finished,
full-sized, occupiable and usable building.
In an easy-to-read, conversational style, Ralph Liebing distills the
often-complex procedures in the construction of architecture into clear,
understandable phases. Connecting each phase to the next, he takes the reader
step-by-step from project inception and documentation to code compliance to
bidding and the contract through finalization of the project and occupancy of
the completed building.
The text is enhanced with such features as:
* Drawings and photographs of the building process
* Samples of documents used in construction
* A concise narrative of the construction of a typical commercial building, from
start to finish
With this primer in hand, every aspiring building professional will have the
solid foundation in the concepts and skills needed to bring any building project
to fruition, from inception to occupancy.
*Instructor Companion Site features an expanded glossary and additional
resources
