Exercises in Building Construction

Exercises in Building Construction, 7th Edition, is a companion student workbook to the core textbook Fundamentals of Building Construction, Seventh Edition. The volume offers learners a hands-on way to apply the concepts and materials examined in the primary text.

The exercises take an integrated approach to construction methods, interweaving material properties, building science, building craft, and legal constraints. Through this structure, the workbook addresses the elements of building construction as an interconnected system rather than disconnected parts.

Written for students of architecture, engineering, or construction, this seventh edition incorporates forty-nine real-world construction problems. The exercises engage students with everyday decisions and practical issues encountered by professional building architects.
