Modern Construction Envelopes takes a comprehensive approach to the design of the building envelope, encompassing both the facade and roof as essential components. This approach enables architects and designers to consider the entire structure as a unified system, fostering greater design freedom and creativity. The book is specifically tailored for readers who seek to expand their expertise in wall and roof construction beyond the information provided in the Modern Construction Handbook. It employs state-of-the-art construction principles of modern facade and roof systems, providing readers with a deeper understanding of these critical components.
In the third edition of this renowned classic, the content has been thoroughly updated. Each chapter includes new examples to illustrate key concepts, and the projects are presented in revised 3D drawings and 27 AR applications, which can be accessed free of charge through smartphone and tablet devices.
By incorporating a holistic approach to the design of the building envelope, Modern Construction Envelopes empowers architects and designers to create buildings that are not only functional but also visually stunning. The book serves as a valuable resource for professionals, students, and anyone interested in advancing their knowledge of construction and architectural design.
