Materials for Architects and Builders

Description

Materials for Architects and Builders is written as an
introductory text to inform students at undergraduate
degree and national diploma level of the relevant
visual and physical properties of a wide range of
building materials. The third edition has been significantly enhanced by the incorporation of
full colour images throughout, illustrating the materials and in many cases their use in buildings of architectural
merit. The text includes the broad environmental
debate with sections on energy saving and recycled
materials. There are seventeen chapters covering the
wide range of materials under standard headings.
Each chapter describes the manufacture, salient properties and typical uses of the various materials, with the aim of ensuring their appropriate application
within an awareness of their ecological impact.
