Book Review: a must-have for structural&construction engineers
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book first in 1999, and I found it really helpful to imagine all construction details. Since then I'm keen to obtain every new edition. I honestly urge those who are making detail design and construction engineers as well as civil engineering students to have it and use it.Book Review: Building Construction Illustrated is a must
Summary: 5 Stars
All of Francis D. K. Ching's books are valuable to architecture students. For drafting on the board or CAD, I refer to this, and other Dr. Ching books often. Other Dr. Ching Books I highly recommend are, Architecture: Form, Space, and Order; An Illustrated Dictionary of Architecture.Book Review: Can't get through Architecture School without this
