Building Technology 3: Design, Production and Maintenance (Construction Technology and Management) - Softcover
It is increasingly important nowadays for senior personnel in the construction industry to be aware of the wider social, organizational and economic context within which they work. The impact of building in the community is such that it is no longer excusable (if it ever was) to design and build them in isolation from other buildings and from their immediate surroundings. Equally, to achieve a satisfactory end result, which is both profitable and adequately serves the needs of a building's users, it is vital for the range of professions involved in construction projects to work harmoniously and effectively together. These are the two main themes of the third volume on building technology within the present series. It outlines the framework within which technological decisions have to be made, by setting out the factors which have to be considered at each of the crucial stages in a project - design, production and maintenance. It does not give answers to specific problems, or go into the details of building construction; rather, it presents issues and concepts, and techniques for analyzing and solving problems which arise in practice. This book is relevant to the needs of students taking the CIOB Member Parts 1 and 2 examinations. It is also suitable for use on degree and HND courses in Building and Surveying; by those preparing for the professional examinations of the RIBA, RICS and IQS; and as background for Continuing Professional Development. Ian Chandler is also the author of "Materials Management on Construction Sites".
