For nearly three decades, Building Construction Illustrated has offered an outstanding introduction to the principles of building construction. This new edition of the revered classic remains as relevant as ever-providing the latest information in Francis D.K. Ching's signature style. Its rich and comprehensive approach clearly presents all of the basic concepts underlying building construction and equips readers with useful guidelines for approaching virtually any new materials or techniques they may encounter.

Laying out the material and structural choices available, it provides a full under-standing of how these choices affect a building's form and dimensions. Complete with more than 1,000 illustrations, the book moves through each of the key stages of the design process, from site selection to building components, mechanical systems, and finishes.

Building Construction Book
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

Smooth transaction and great price. The packaging, however, is a little too much. I am not really sure why a used book was shipped in a big box filled with bits and pieces of styro foams. It's a little messy.

Great book. I use it for my arch110 .
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

Great book. Lots of good building info and the images help you really visualise the building process.

Very useful
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

I got this to help with some of the harder construction code requirements. Handy book to have if you get a building code book and need a bit more explanation. For instance, I was looking at foundations - it illustrated different types of foundation systems, support systems, footings, walls, foundations on different kinds of grades, etc. If you are a visual learner, definitely a must.

bad thumbnail
Customer Rating:  Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1 Score = 1

I thought the book was the 4th edition as the thumbnail( cover illustration). I was made me misunderstood. When i got a book I was so upset because it turned out different edition. I got 2nd edition.

I am so disappoint for buy stuff online. If you are not sure about the cover book's illustration, please write which edition is it.

Informative Guide
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

I bought this as required text book for my Architectural Course at College, it has been very useful converting my UK Construction industry terminology into USA terminology, easily understood and so many illustrations, recommended !
