This book presents the basic concepts of techniques of building construction,
mainly by means of drawings illustrating typical construction details, processes
and concepts. I have chosen this method because it reflects the primary means of
communication on site between building designer and building contractor – the
construction drawing or detail. It must be stressed that the drawings used here
represent typical details, chosen to illustrate particular points of building
construction or technology; they do not constitute the alpha and omega of any
buildings design, detail or process. The principles they illustrate must therefore, in
reality, be applied to the data of the particular problem or situation encountered.
This new edition has been revised by Roger Greeno, in line with current building
regulations.
