Celebrating seventy-five years of defining architectural standards, Wiley is proud to introduce the most thorough revision of Architectural Graphic Standards in a generation. This anniversary edition of the indispensable architect's tool features an entirely new design created by Bruce Mau Design, improved organization, and expanded and all-new content covering contemporary issues.
"Architectural Graphic Standards" (11th edition) is organized roughly per the UniFormat(r) classification system, i.e., by function instead of by product or material. This new edition has expanded and new content covering contemporary issues, such as LEED standards, green materials, sustainable construction, recyclability, new building systems, structural technologies, universal, and accessible design strategies, computing technologies including Building Information Modeling (BIM) and CAD/CAM, etc. It may take you a while to get used to this new format, but the information is still valuable and current.
"Architectural Graphic Standards" has 1120 pages (9.7 x 11.6 inches large format) and numerous line drawings. It is a must-have for architects, landscape architects and urban planners, interior designers, engineers or any other building-related design professionals.
