Synopsis

"Architects understand that aesthetics are only a small fraction of good design, and that stability and functionality require a deep understanding of how things come together. In guiding a design from idea to reality, architects create a set of details that show how a structure will be put together. Good details are correct, complete, and provide accurate information to a wide variety of users. Using patterns that demonstrate best practice and consistent designs, this book teaches how to design a building that will perform as well as was intended by the designer"--
