Architects guide a project from design idea to buildable reality by working with other building industry professionals and creating a set of details that show how things are put together. Good details provide clear, complete, and correct information to the wide variety of users that need them. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eArchitectural Detailing \u003c\/i\u003esystematically describes the principles by which good architectural details are designed. Using patterns that demonstrate best practices and consistent approaches to design detailing, this book teaches why detailing is important, what factors shape detailing issues, and how to detail a building that meets or exceeds performance requirements. Principles are supported by extensive illustrations that demonstrate how to design building details that will not leak water or air, will control the flow of heat and water vapor, will adjust to all kinds of movement, and will be easy to construct. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fourth edition has been updated to conform to the latest International Building Codes and International Energy Conservation Code requirements and incorporates current knowledge about new material and construction technology, including: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eExpanded patterns for sustainability, high performance architecture, and resilience\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamples using panelized or modularized prefabricated building assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eComplex case studies demonstrating the detailing design process for energy efficient structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDesign detailing for maintenance and management of sensitive or weak spots in a building assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eArchitectural Detailing\u003c\/i\u003e helps you bring a building together with a well detailed design that communicates effectively at all levels of the construction process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePATRICK RAND, FAIA, \u003c\/b\u003e is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Architecture in the College of Design at North Carolina State University.
