4.0 out of 5 stars A must have for all Second year school of the built environment students, 21 April 2006
By Mr. Eric L. Dyche (derby United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a mature student studying in my second year of a building surveying degree with twenty years experience in the construction industry, I can tell you that the best book for any second year student studying in higher education in building or construction at either college of higher/further education/technical college, HND or degree level is 'Advanced Construction Technology' by Roy Chudley, third edition (ISBN number 0582316170).

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have book for any construction/surveying student., 13 Sep 2007
By Alexander Jones - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a mature student I bought this book, amongst others, to help me through building tech during my second year of a diploma. Illustrations are good and packed with useful relevant information. Brilliant when needing a reference guide when producing drawings. I would recommend this book to anyone studying or, as a handy work reference tool. Now starting a degree so i am sure this book will be helping me again.
