Description

A thorough knowledge of the "hows" and "whys" of building assemblies is a prerequisite to effective architectural design. Architectural detailing - creating drawings that accurately describe particular assemblies within a design - is essential to controlling the total building process. This book provides students with a solid grounding in building assemblies, followed by step-by-step guidance on how to develop effective professional architectural details which are essential to becoming a skilled architectural detailer. More than 1,000 expertly-crafted design details (including over 400 new CAD-drawn 3-D images, details, and photographs) help illustrate the concepts presented while establishing a high level of detailing excellence to which students will aspire.
