Comprehensive Design for Building Systems (Electronic book text)

Integrating the technical aspects of buildings into architectural design is a crucial objective for architects and architectural engineers. "Design Coordination for Architects and Architectural Engineers" is the go-to resource for architecture studios needing to coordinate building technology into a design. Illustrated throughout with detailed illustrations, the book covers three phases of the design process: site analysis and design, schematic design, and design development. The integration of specific building systems is considered throughout in order to better design efficient, cost-effective, high-performance buildings.
