BUILDABILITY IN PRACTICE by Ian Ferguson

This guide for professionals involved at all stages of a construction project begins by defining buildability and its principles, and then shows how those principles apply to the design costing and communication methods employed by designers, and to the preparation and assembly methods used by constructors. The final section consists of two extended case studies - of a city centre commercial building and a private housing development - which show the operation of buildability in detail, at each stage of a project. Above all, professionals - whether architects, engineers, surveyors or building contractors - will welcome the book's practical demonstration of how buildability can help them to avoid delays, wastage and costly defects, and to produce better quality, more cost effective buildings. Ian Ferguson is co-author, with Eric Mitchell, of "Quality on Site".
