Master the construction process, from inception to occupancy
Buildings don't just appear. While the aesthetics and theory of architecture have their glamour, architecture would not exist without the hands-on, nuts-and-bolts process of construction. Construction of Architecture: From Design to Built gives architects, contractors, managers, trade workers, and anyone else involved in a building project a thorough overview of the process of taking or converting a fine design concept from a paper exercise to a finished, full-sized, inhabitable, and usable building.
In an easy-to-read, conversational style, Ralph Liebing distills the often-complex procedures associated with the construction of architecture into clear, understandable phases. Connecting each phase to the next, he takes the reader step by step from project inception and documentation to code compliance, to bidding and the contract, through finalization of the project and occupancy of the completed building.
The text is enhanced with such features as:

Numerous drawings and photographs of the building process

Samples of documents used in construction

A concise narrative of the construction of a typical commercial building, from start to finish
With this primer in hand, every aspiring design or building professional will have a solid foundation in the progression of work on any building project, from inception to occupancy.
