520 |a This textbook provides easy-to-read, comprehensive, and highly illustrated coverage of commercial building construction practices that conform to industry standards. Each chapter provides comprehensive descriptions, real-world practices, realistic examples, actual two-dimensional (2D) commercial construction drawings, three-dimensional (3D) illustrations, and related tests, research problems, and print reading problems. The examples illustrate typical construction practices used throughout the United States and Canada. Chapters are organized in a format that is consistent with the process used to take commercial construction projects from preliminary concept through all phases of commercial building construction.
