First Edition

PLEASE NOTE: This book is a NON-MINT item due to imperfections to the covers and the plastic dust jackets. Also some copies show a weakness in the glue that binds the covers leading to the possibility of the cover becoming detached from the body of the book.

This one-stop handbook for architecture students provides step-by-step techniques for perfecting the vital skills of drawing, model making and surveying. It is a primer on the conventions of architectural representation and the use of materials. It also explains the primary elements of construction and structure from first principles, using clear diagrams and drawings.

Recommended in the first year at numerous architecture schools, this second edition has been updated to include a new section on sustainability, more on types of drawing and when to use them, and more on structural principles and materials.

'This is an excellent, clear and comprehensive book for Year 1 architecture students, which will continue to be useful throughout their course and into practice'. Laura Evans, Senior Lecturer and Joint Course Leader, Kingston University
