Overview
Principles, Materials, and Methods Harold B. Olin, AIA John L. Schmidt, AIA Walter H. Lewis, AIA revised by H. Leslie Simmons, AIA Through three decades, Harold B. Olin, John L. Schmidt, and Walter H. Lewis's acclaimed Construction has been the definitive textbook in the field of modern construction technology. Now, with this Sixth Edition, renowned construction consultant H. Leslie Simmons has thoroughly updated this classic work and enhanced it to reflect key developments in the industry. Like its predecessors, this edition provides a uniquely detailed yet easy-to-follow coverage of small residential construction--from wood, masonry, and finishes to HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other systems. But it also offers a number of important new features, among them:
- The editorial input of today's leading manufacturers, trade and professional associations, standard-setting bodies, government agencies, and industry publications.
- All-new guidance on the materials and methods used in the construction of commercial, institutional, and larger residential buildings, including low-, mid-, and high-rise buildings and more on wood frame construction.
- A new, one-of-a-kind core structure that follows the design of Masterformat, the CSI-developed standard for organizing specifications. This solid framework gives students an early understanding of the specs and data-filing formats used in the vast majority of private sector and government building projects in the United States.
- More than 2,000 all-new illustrations, including first-ever photographs of contemporary commercial and industrial buildings.
- An Instructor's Manual and a Student Workbook, available for the first time with this edition, both written by Terry L. Patterson of the University of Oklahoma, author of Construction Materials for Architects and Designers and the new study, Frank Lloyd Wright and the Meaning of Materials.
- Extensively revised bibliographies and glossaries, plus a new appendix listing the names addresses, and phone numbers of the organizations, associations, and agencies that contributed to the book.
