Книга: Barry's Introduction to Construction of Buildings

The five-volume series Barry's Construction of Buildings has long been established as a standard text on building technology. However, a substantial update has long been required, and while doing this the opportunity has been taken to reduce five volumes to two in a more user-friendly format. The introductory volume covers domestic construction and brings together material from volumes one, two and five. The extensive revision includes modern concepts on site assembly, environmental issues, and safety, and features further reading.
