The comprehensive guide to construction tolerances, newly revised
and updated
How much may a steel frame be out of plumb? What are the expected
variations of a precast concrete panel? What is required to
successfully detail finish materials on masonry?
Updating and expanding on its popular first edition, the Handbook
of Construction Tolerances, Second Edition remains the only
comprehensive reference to the thousands of industry standard
tolerances for the manufacture, fabrication, and installation of
construction materials and components-- including all-important
accumulated dimensional variations.
Covering new materials and techniques developed since the book was
first published, the Second Edition of this easy-to-use reference
features:
* More than 100 drawings illustrating the tolerance concepts
* New sections on measuring compliance with tolerance standards;
right-of-way construction; autoclaved aerated concrete; tilt-up
concrete panels; interior stone wall cladding; structural insulated
panels; decorative architectural glass; laminated architectural
flat glass and bent glass
* New guidelines on how to incorporate tolerance requirements in
drawings and specifications
* New information on how to apply tolerance information during
contract administration
With the Handbook, architects, engineers, contractors, interior
designers, lawyers, and others involved in the construction
industry will be armed with the information they need to design and
detail more accurately, write better specifications, establish
normal practice and standards of care, supervise construction,
settle worksite disputes, and save time and money at every stage of
building.
