From the Author
Author's summary of Standard Handbook of Arch. Engineering
Hi, I'm Robert Brown Butler, author of SHAE, published byMcGraw-Hill. Amazon.com has invited me to tell you a little about my book . . .

SHAE really is a unique publication, based on my nearly 40 years' experience as an architect, builder, and author of other books. This volume is definitely the best ever written on architectural engineering, for several reasons:
1. It tells you how to select and size virtually every functional component in every building, from shed to skyscraper, anywhere in the world.
2. Its extremely well-organized format and unique section key numbers let you find what you're looking for very quickly.
3. It introduces two fundamentally new engineering concepts: parameter design [sizing a component's outer dimensions regardless of its inner details so you can move quickly on to other matters affected by the component's size] and the gauging equation [estimating a component's size by certain practical or experiential criteria when no scientifically articulate method has yet been devised].
4. The book's computerized disk of its 990 algebraic formulas enables you to calculate any unknown in any equation instantly and error-free. No more mistakes! No more having to check your math!

At first glance, the price of this publication may seem rather high. But this hefty tome has 1120 pages, 105 tables, and 420 magnificent ink drawings plus the computerized disk. In fact if you do this kind of work, the only thing that will cost you more than this volume-cum-disk will be not to own it.

Altogether, SHAE is a brick of a book! With it in hand, all you need to make strong and enduring buildings of any kind is the mortar of your imagination.

Thank you for lending me your eyes for a moment, and GOOD LUCK in your latest ventures, whether functional or otherwise.

RBB 4 SHAE, 12 Feb 99
