User Comments about the Fundamentals of Building Construction: Materials and Methods

This book completely overviews, with detail, the many different areas of materials used in architecture and construction, from the past to the present. This book was incredibly helpful. It was just what I wanted and needed. Very detailed and very accurate. It was in perfect condition.

The book was exactly as advertised and arrived in a timely manner. Excellent transaction.

The book was so clean and brandnew. I received it so fast in less than a week in good shape.

This is BY FAR one of the best and most thorough construction books I've seen to date. Excellent book. There are many drawings and pictures to show what is being talked about.

This book has alot of information in it both on the actual materials properties and production and on the structural methods and forms
