Kurzbeschreibung
Building on the success of previous revisions, this classic text retains its original concept of explaining construction technology through key functional/performance requirements. The new edition features the following updates: fully integrated coverage of building and construction sustainability; a more thorough treatment of demolition; updates to text and illustrations to reflect the latest teaching approaches. Advanced undergraduate students and those working towards similar NQF level 5 and 6 qualifications in building and construction will find this the ideal book with which to continue their study.
