Architectural Design and Drafting

This is the best, most concise, book to use when one is starting to organize a set of building plans. There are many pertinent detail drawings required. Quite a number of these detail drawings address custom details, as well as the standard conditions typical to most wood frame construction. This third edition was written by two authors who are practicing design professionals, who are also teachers at the community college level. They seem to have been able to establish a clear and accurate communications link between the designer and builder. When this third edition was published in 1979 it cost about $30.00 (My original hardbound copy of the second edition cost $22.00). It is unclear why the cost is now $73.00. Possibly this is a typographical error.
