Recenzii
'Informs and seeks to test the reader's understanding of building materials and the construction process ... a very well thought-out and useful publication.' – Building Engineer
'Informs and seeks to test the reader's understanding of building materials and the construction process ... a very well thought-out and useful publication.' – Building Engineer
'The second edition of this excellent text builds on the detail of the original – each chapter contains clear and concise information on all parts of the construction process from site investigations to finishes using high quality diagrams to support the text. Each chapter also contains self-assessment questions which help the student gauge their understanding of the main concepts – I would recommend this book not only to academics but to new vocational practitioners as an essential read. Brilliant.' – Ian Butt, Programme Leader HNC/D Construction and the Built Environment, City of Bath College
'Fundamental Building Technology shows how building technology is a multi-faceted area requiring knowledge and understanding of the interdependent issues of building physics, materials, building techniques and legislation... Sustainability is rightfully embedded as a theme, which runs through the contents and facilitates an understanding of the impact of sustainability principles. For students of construction technology this approach not only reinforces the importance of sustainable development, but also illustrates how it relates to and impacts on other factors… Here in one volume is encapsulated the information that provides the foundations for an understanding of the dynamics of building technology.' – Anna Hiley, University of Manchester

Descriere
Introduces the technology, methods, and processes fundamental to building by following the construction of a typical low-rise house. The key elements of the house are tackled in the same order as they would be built in real-life, with self-study questions, detailed diagrams, and comments on sustainability throughout. This second edition also includes an introduction to the planning process, and the building regulations, as well as a companion site with resources for lecturers and students.
