The architect’s studio companion: rules of thumb for preliminary design, sixth edition Ebook

The Architect’s Studio Companion is the only handbook the practicing architect needs. Packed with useful information, it is more than simply a reference. Edward Allen and Joseph Iano, authors of the best-selling Fundamentals of Building Construction, use their trademark talent for explaining highly technical concepts in an easy to understand manner to help the designer enter the process more quickly, with data that informs the initial and subsequent designs. Designers will find themselves constantly going back to their Studio Companion for its straightforward and direct illustrations, rules of thumb and code issues. This is the only reference that so effectively incorporates building design with human factors. No architect should be without it.
