Review: This book has been thoroughly updated and expanded at the suggestion of lecturers in the area. The now now includes significant additions to the section on design constraints, inclusion of new sections such as quality assurance and management and information on new acts and regulations introduced since the first edition. Other sections on subjects such as the Building Regulations, uses of computers and standard forms and letters have been brought up-to-date. This book: Assumes no prior knowledge of the subject; Provides a useful introduction to architectural practice for the student; Contains examples of completed standard forms and typical letters; Demonstrates clearly the architect's role as the client's agent.
