Book The Architect in Practice

Download or read book The Architect in Practice written by David Chappell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout its many editions, The Architect in Practice has remained a leading textbook used in the education of architects. While the content of the book has developed, the message and philosophy has remained constant: to provide students of architecture and young practitioners with a readable guide to the profession, outlining an architect's duties to their client and contractor, the key aspects of running a building contract, and the essentials of management, finance and drawing office procedure. The eleventh edition follows in that tradition. The text has been brought up to date to ensure it follows the new RIBA Plan of Work 2013 as the guide to the architect’s workflow. In addition, a number of changes to standard forms of contract were made with the publication of the JCT 2011 suite of contracts, and the RIBA Standard Form for the Appointment of an Architect 2010 (2012 Revision). These new forms are fully covered. In addition, the opportunity has been taken to reorganise the layout so that the content flows in a way that is more consistent with current architectural practice, and to deal with the increasing use of BIM. The eleventh edition of The Architect in Practice continues to provide the guidance and advice all students and practising architects need in the course of their studies and in their profession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In developing The Architecture Student's Handbook, an advisory group of noted professional practice educators and practitioners reviewed the content of The Architect's Handbook to distill the content for students. Some content is taken directly from The Architect's Handbook, some is edited or condensed, and, significantly, unique content has been developed only for students. The Architecture Student's Handbook has a particular emphasis on integrated practice and integrated project delivery, with new content on research and evidence-based design that does not appear in The Architect's Handbook. At least a quarter of The Architecture Student's Handbook content is unique or significantly edited from the professional book."--BOOK JACKET.
