Construction Materials Manual

Most books on construction materials are directed primarily at building engineers. Construction Materials Manual is an overview of materials for architects that considers the importance of the sensory perception of architecture including tactile qualities, smell, color, and surface structure. It also addresses fundamental questions of sustainability including life span, environmental impact, and material cycles. All of the principal conventional and innovative construction materials are comprehensively documented, with attention to their production, manufacture, fabrication, treatment, surfaces, connections, and characteristics.Hegger, Manfred is the author of 'Construction Materials Manual' with ISBN 9783764375706 and ISBN 3764375701.
