Kurzbeschreibung
Materials Manual is a comprehensive reference manual of building and decorative materials, and finishes. Introducing the properties, conditions, and attributes of a wide range of materials used by architects and interior designers, Materials Manual considers their use in a holistic and integrated manner by explaining how materials contribute to the construction and fabrication of floors, partitions, ceilings, and casework. The reader is guided directly to the options for the location or assembly they are considering to select a material for and learn about the pros and cons of various applications.

This comprehensive reference imparts essential knowledge on how materials contribute to the construction and fabrication of all interior aspects of buildings, with coverage of the characteristics and properties of building materials and finishes. The highly illustrated book addresses key characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of specific materials, helping readers discover how to make every building element count. Organized by application for easy access to information, the book also includes a companion website with an extensive image bank of materials and assemblies. (ICON Magazine)
