DESIGN + CONSTRUCTION | BIRKHAUSER

People involved in architecture need to be familiar with construction methods in order to be in control of their designs. New technical requirements impact our buildings and call for up-to-date specialist knowledge, which leads to new forms in architecture.

This handbook uses clearly comprehensible 3D isometric diagrams to introduce the world of contemporary construction, from concept through to the detail:  photographs are used to illustrate the content.
