Architectural technologists are at the interface between design and construction. As design becomes more complex, using a wider range of complex technologies and materials, it is essential that architectural technologists and other professionals understand the implications of their decisions on the performance of the building over its entire life cycle. This core textbook on translating creative designs into functional buildings is written for undergraduates in architectural technology, Architectural technologists are at the interface between design and construction. As design becomes more complex, using a wider range of complex technologies and materials, it is essential that architectural technologists and other professionals understand the implications of their decisions on the performance of the building over its entire life cycle. This core textbook on translating creative designs into functional buildings is written for undergraduates in architectural technology, architectural engineering, architecture and building surveying. The second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect new technologies - both in materials and ICTs, increased attention to sustainability, and changing methods of procurement. Architecture Technology is structured to take the reader through the whole life-cycle of a building, emphasising sustainability, building performance and the value of design. Material on digital information, building information modelling (BIM) and information communication technologies has been updated. Most chapters have been re-titled, re-structured and enhanced with photographic images to emphasise the importance of design and make the book more accessible to a wider range of students. Chapters conclude with extensive links to further reading. The three main themes - Environmental Sustainability; Innovation; and Design are emphasised throughout with the focus on translating conceptual designs into built artefacts. From the book's Foreword:".an excellent tool to enable the 21st Century Architectural Technologist to remain at the leading edge of innovative design solutions within the construction industry on an international scale. CIAT, in endorsing this publication, is aware of the continued need for books such as this as a support aid for both students and those practising within the discipline of Architectural Technology."- Colin Orr, President of the Chartered Books, Architecture~~Design Drafting Drawing & Presentation, Architectural-Technology~~Stephen-Emmitt, 999999999, Architectural Technology, Stephen Emmitt, 063206403X, Wiley, John & Sons, Incorporated, , , , , Wiley, John & Sons, Incorporated<

Since the publication of the first edition of Architectural Technology, in 2002, there have been significant developments in the number of courses, the profile of the discipline as well as significant changes in the Construction sector. The Second edition of Architectural Technology addresses these challenges directly. Much greater emphasis is given to the three core themes of the book - Environmental Sustainability; Innovation; and Design. An increase in the visual material Since the publication of the first edition of Architectural Technology, in 2002, there have been significant developments in the number of courses, the profile of the discipline as well as significant changes in the Construction sector. The Second edition of Architectural Technology addresses these challenges directly. Much greater emphasis is given to the three core themes of the book - Environmental Sustainability; Innovation; and Design. An increase in the visual material included reinforces the critical role of Design, aiding students to better translate conceptual designs into built artefacts. Building upon solid teaching practice from the previous edition, Architectural Technology is now more concisely structured to take the reader through the whole life cycle of a building, emphasising sustainability and building performance. Material on digital information, building information modelling (BIM) and information communication technologies has been updated. Most chapters have been re-titled to emphasise the importance of design and make the book more accessible to a wider range of students. Chapters conclude with updated/more extensive links to further reading. Architectural Technology, 2nd Edition: Bridges the knowledge gap between design and constructionTackles the core subjects of management, technologies and design from a sustainable building angleAddresses the buildability and performance of a design from a whole life perspectiveThoroughly revised and updated this undergraduate level textbook is essential for Architectural Technology courses. Students studying Architectural Engineering, Architecture, Building Surveying; and more general Construction courses, will find the material invaluable.

This core textbook brings together for the first time the technical, legal, social and philosophical issues under the umbrella of architectural technology. Part 1 covers the influences that affect the way we build -- the environmental agenda, the human factors, buildability, time and costs. Part 2 takes the reader through the life of a typical building project -- from briefing, through design and assembly, to use and eventual disassembly. Part 3 tackles some of the underlying issues facing the architectural technologist -- from the communication of details to technological innovation. Architectural Technolgy bridges the knowledge gap between design and construction, enabling the architectural technologist to apply their unique skill in a creative and innovative way. As a textbook aimed at those studying for membership of BIAT this is clearly very thorough and has the recommendation of their Vice President Education. However, it can also justifiably earn its place on the bookshelf of anybody involved in the construction process as a reference and to aid an understanding of others he/she will be working with to develop an environment of which to be proud.
