Barry’s Advanced Construction of Buildings, 4th Edition
Barry, Robin
Preference :
The Introduction volume has retained the same chapter structure, with changes made within chapters to improve readability. The introductory chapter has been rewritten to better explain the process of construction and to place greater emphasis on the environmental impact of construction. The material on timber-framed construction has been moved to this volume, which has allowed for simplification, rewriting, and renaming of Chapter 5 to better reflect the content on loadbearing wall construction. Scaffolding can now be found in the Introduction volume and the material on foundations has been restructured in both volumes to remove repetition.
