| Summary |
"In Principles of Architectural Detailing the authors question the way in which buildings are detailed and, in particular, challenge familiar joint solutions. They offer practical guidance and a number of tools to help the student of architectural detailing in the decision-making process. The emphasis throughout is on using knowledge of construction in a creative and productive way to contribute towards a built environment that enhances our well-being and which is also sustainable."--BOOK JACKET |
