Author: John M. GriesPublisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9781330368381
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
House Design, Construction and Equipment: Reports on the Committees on Design is written and published by the President's Conference on Home Building and Home Ownership. This book was published in the hope of combating faulty design, uneconomic planning, defective construction, and imperfect equipment. By increasing awareness of design and proper building policies and procedures, this book intends to ensure that future construction and developments don't fall into the trap of poor and defective design, thereby saving the reader untold time and resources. The book contends that any standard dwelling should serve its occupants for at least three generations of inhabitants and each building should maintain this standard of sustainability; not only is this standard attainable, it should be industry standard. The text also discusses at length the major issue of workers and designers who are satisfied with imperfect practices and second-rate structures. The publication challenges individuals who are in construction and design to raise their personal standards of work and to fill neighborhoods and communities with the best structures they can possibly build. Overall, the text effectively establishes a relevant dialogue on building and construction standards with a realistic understanding of the pressures of oversight and the limitations on supplies and economic constrictions. House Design, Construction and Equipment: Reports on the Committees on Design is an interesting read for anyone intrigued by design and construction or with the business constraints on builders and construction crews. The text is primarily intended for architects, contractors and producers of building materials and equipment, but can be enjoyed by students of architecture and individuals interested in construction. This book is also engaging for readers with a mind for business and who are keenly intrigued by construction.

Book Description
Pretty Good House provides a framework and set of guidelines for building or renovating a high-performance home that focus on its inhabitants and the environment--but keeps in mind that few people have pockets deep enough to achieve a "perfect" solution. The essential idea is for homeowners to work within their financial and practical constraints both to meet their own needs and do as much for the planet as possible. A Pretty Good House is: * A house that's as small as possible * Simple and durable, but also well designed * Insulated and air-sealed * Above all, it is affordable, healthy, responsible, and resilient.
