Student Essentials

Throughout its many editions, The Architect in Practice has remained a leading textbook used in the education of architects.

Significantly revised in reference to changing building types and construction standards, new chapters added on data centres and logistics facilities and sustainable design integrated into chapters throughout. This book belongs in every design office.

The 12th edition of the Chudley and Greeno's Building Construction Handbook remains THE authoritative reference for all construction students and professionals, with new material on modern methods of construction, greater emphasis on sustainability and a new look interior.

"Originally Published in the German Language by Vieweg + Teubner, 65189 Wiesbaden, Germany, as "Ernst Neufert: Neufert Bauentwurfslehre. 41. Auflage (41st Edition)."

From a distance, all of the discussed topics start to intertwine and melt into each other, becoming a wider reflection on the topicality of the international component in the portfolios of future architects.

The Part 3 Handbook is the only book of its kind – an approved RIBA guide to taking Part 3, with support on all the essential components including the Professional Experience and Development Record, the written examination, the case study and the oral examination. It also outlines the Part 3 criteria, professional registration and CPD.

How do we design in a climate emergency? A new social and ecological prerogative demands appropriate material choices, a re-invention of construction and evolving building programmes that look at lifecycle, embodied energy and energy use.

This book is the go-to guide for students throughout their architectural education. It introduces architecture students to all they need to know to get on an architecture course, thrive at school and be prepared for the realities of becoming a practising architect.
