Synopsis

La construction est un sujet très pratique. Les étudiants de tous les programmes d'études en environnement bâti doivent connaître et comprendre la technologie du bâtiment d'un point de vue théorique et pratique. Les visites sur chantier sont un moyen populaire pour les étudiants de se familiariser avec les aspects pratiques de la construction, mais ces visites ne peuvent montrer aux étudiants qu'une petite partie de la technologie de construction.

Basé sur une série de séquences photographiques en couleur, complétées par des illustrations et du texte soigneusement choisis, Construction Practice offre aux étudiants un aperçu complet de la technologie de construction pratique. Les séquences suivent une progression logique à travers le sujet et incluent une pratique contemporaine et établie, ainsi que des méthodes de construction modernes. Le livre comprend également quelques exemples de méthodes de construction européennes continentales où elles diffèrent de la pratique établie au Royaume-Uni.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Construction is a highly practical subject. As a student on a built environment degree programme you will be expected to know and understand building technology from both a theoretical and practical standpoint. Construction site visits are a popular way to become acquainted with the practical aspects of construction, but these visits can only show a small proportion of the technology of construction.

Written to work alongside site visits and conventional construction textbooks, Construction Practice will provide you with a comprehensive overview of practical construction technology by showing real construction projects at various stages of completion. Based around a series of full colour photographic sequences, carefully chosen line illustrations and explanatory text, the case studies reveal the practical operations that go into building various structures, from housing to high–rise commercial buildings. The sequences include established practice as well as contemporary and modern methods of construction, and also include some examples of Continental European construction methods where these differ from established UK practice.

This book will be of interest to students undertaking construction technology studies at HNC and HND level, as well as those studying degree courses in Building, Building Surveying, Quantity Surveying and Construction Management.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Construction is a highly practical subject. Students on all built environment degree programmes are expected to know and understand building technology from both a theoretical and practical standpoint. Construction site visits are a popular way for students to become acquainted with the practical aspects of construction, but these visits can only show students a small proportion of the technology of construction.

Based around a series of full colour photographic sequences, augmented by carefully chosen line illustrations and text, Construction Practice provides students with a comprehensive overview of practical construction technology. The sequences follow a logical progression through the subject and include contemporary and established practice, as well as modern methods of construction. The book also includes some examples of continental European construction methods where these differ from established UK practice.
