Product Information
This book was originally devised as a guide for converting from imperial to metric measurements. The New Metric Handbook has since been totally transformed into a major international handbook of planning and design data. All principal building types are dealt with ranging from airports, factories and warehouses, to schools, churches and libraries. For each such building type the New Metric Handbook gives the basic design requirements and all the principal dimensional data. In addition, there are ten chapters dealing with general aspects of building such as materials, lighting, acoustics and tropical design. It is therefore a unique authoritative reference for solving everyday planning problems. In its various editions it has sold about 100,000 worldwide, and continues to be a reference work belonging on every design office desk or drawing board.
