From the Dust Jacket: "UNDERSTANDING BUILDINGS provides students in architecture and other allied disciplines with a basic introduction to building technology in all its main aspects� [T]his is the first general, multidisciplinary text to provide an overall explanation of the quite complicated aspects of building technology by looking first at the simple sources and underlying principles that are the key to understanding what is done in practice. In seven chapters, each with a short introduction, the book discusses structure, climate services, utility services, lighting, acoustics, fire safety, and future needs." "UNDERSTANDING BUILDINGS fills the gap between the overly simple and the overly specialized in an admirable way. It covers all aspects of the building construction process by a lucid exposition of principles, without oversimplification, unnecessary jargon, or pedantry . Technical information is introduced in a straightforward, logical manner�" -- Eric Dluhosch, MIT. . First US Edition. Oversize Hardcover. Fine condition/Very Good dust jacket.

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
