Construction is the means by which designing architects and engineers transform

a design idea into built reality. It is from this perspective that the subject of

'building construction design' is dealt with by the architect Jose Luis Moro in

three comprehensive volumes. Each is dedicated to the methodological,

physical and functional fundamentals, the conception of a constructional

solution, and finally its implementation in the constructional detail.

Not only do the three volumes provide extensive content; they also ensure the

greatest possible clarity in the text and graphics, in order to make it easier for

learners to access the material. Importantly, they focus not only on conveying

technical and scientific information, but also on demonstrating the complex

relationships and interactions between design, material and construction. Great

importance was attached to developing consistent, overarching and meaningful

correlations between the numerous and highly diverse topics covered.

After an introduction to planning theory topics, Volume 1 ("Fundamentals") addresses

sustainability issues in the context of constructional design. This is followed by a

discussion of the most important material-related considerations and their consequences

for the constructional application of the materials. The range of currently available

industrial building products is also presented. Furthermore, the essential requirements

and functions that building structures must fulfill from a structural, building physics, building

acoustics and fire protection perspective are examined. In closing, the book considers

questions of durability.
