| Description: | Modern Construction Envelopes combines the earlier Modern Construction Facades and Modern Construction Roofs into a single book with updated illustrations and more exploded views of material systems. This is a textbook for students of architecture, as well as students of structural and environmental engineering who wish to broaden their study beyond the information provided in the Walls and Roofs chapters of the Modern Construction Handbook. It shows the principles of the main facade types used today and illustrates this through typical generic details. The six chapters examine envelopes from the standpoint of the primary material used in their construction, from metal to glass, concrete, masonry, plastics and timber. Each set of five double page spreads explains a specific form of construction which is accompanied by drawn and annotated details. The techniques described can be applied internationally |
