Building Construction Interior Systems - Thryft

Bridge design theory to construction practicalities.

If you're ever daunted by the depth and complexity of building construction, this book is a beacon of clarity. It's not just about piling up information; it breaks down how theoretical design considerations influence the tangible aspects of building creation — a true guide for anyone invested in the transformation from blueprint to structure. Whether you're a student, a professional, or simply a construction enthusiast, you'll appreciate how it makes sense of the intricate dance between design and build.

Description

An reference source for architects, interior designers, and engineers, this volume explains the general development of the building interior, including floors, ceilings, partitions, interior finishes, stairs, atriums, and interior landscaping. Written for piecemeal rather than whole building projects, the volume offers the working professional detailed information on architectural components, materials and elements, and systems. Nine detailed case studies cover a wide variety of building types, and illustrate all topics discussed. Also presented are useful discussions, of design issues and criteria, as well as sources of design information, a comprehensive bibliography, and a glossary of technical terms. This book should be of interest to building designers and construction professionals.
