Synopsis

Build a Stronger Understanding of How Homes Are Planned, Constructed, Coordinated, and Completed

Fundamentals of Residential Construction and Home Building is a practical, comprehensive guide for anyone who wants to understand the systems, methods, and decisions behind successful residential construction.

From early planning and site preparation to foundations, framing, roofing, building systems, interior finishes, inspections, and project closeout, this book explains how the major parts of a home come together—and why proper coordination matters at every stage.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

  • Read and work from residential plans and construction documents
  • Understand site layout, excavation, drainage, foundations, and concrete work
  • Follow floor, wall, and roof framing principles
  • Manage weather protection, flashing, cladding, windows, and doors
  • Understand plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and life-safety systems
  • Improve energy performance, moisture control, durability, and indoor comfort
  • Apply estimating, scheduling, safety, quality-control, and trade-coordination practices
  • Prepare projects for inspection, commissioning, handover, and long-term maintenance

Clear explanations, technical figures, worked examples, practical calculations, and field-focused guidance make this an excellent resource for students, builders, supervisors, contractors, and serious owner-builders.
