Description

The Technology of Building Defects has been developed to provide a unique stand alone review of the subject. Defects are considered as part of the whole building rather than in isolation.

Each section is generously illustrated with photographs and diagrams, forming an accessible self contained review covering the following: objectives; core information; exercises; revision notes; further reading. This book can be used for direct lecture material, seminar and tutorial information, assignment work and revision notes. It is a convenient one stop resource which dispenses with the need to consult a mass of different information sources.In this book, students and professionals are encouraged to look at defects as part of the whole building rather than in isolation. They authors show how and why defects occur and show how to analyse problems and use a technological grounding to solve or avoid such problems.
