Summary

With the latest information on many of today's hot issues, this book will prove valuable to entry-level professionals in drafting and design. While providing excellent background on all basic concepts -- from metric dimensioning to structural calculations -- the book delves into such contemporary concerns as radon control, alternate heating/cooling methods, energy conservation, fire prevention, and accessibility for the physically challenged. Authors Ernest and mark Weidhaas address specific issues from across the nation: from ice dam prevention and moisture control to hurricane, lightning, and earthquake protection. Over 1,000 illustrations -- including pictorals in perspective -- allow readers to grasp many concepts and issues at a glance.
