Product Description

Review
Praise for previous editions:

HIGHLY COMMENDED - CHARTERED INSTITUTE OF BUILDING'S LITERARY AWARDS MARCH 2001
"The hallmark of this book is its clarity. The text and illustrations provide crystal clear guidance on the science and art of brickwork. The book conveys a sense of the 'art of the possible' and illustrates some brickwork solutions that are inspirational, functional and elegant. Now that's success."

"... definitive work on the art and practice of bricklaying"
Building Employers Confederation.

"The perfect answer for NVQ reference material ... no construction resource room should be without this"
Guild of Bricklayers.

"A successful brickwork manual"
Architecture Today.

Product Description
The BDA Guide to Successful Brickwork is the definitive practical guide to obtaining successful results in brickwork construction. Written by a team of experts from the Brick Development Association, the representative group in industry for brickwork construction, this best-selling text has now been brought fully in line with the latest British and European Standards, including the requirements of the new European Standard for Bricks EN771-1, to ensure readers are receiving the most up-to-date and accurate information available in the field.

Based on actual teaching practice, the book is highly illustrated throughout to increase accessibility of the text for the reader in its exploration of the practical aspects of brickwork. It also includes an extensive glossary of brickwork terms for ease of reference. The third edition contains new material detailing recent innovations in brickwork, in the areas of components, systems and techniques, which includes the development of thin-joint techniques for both brickwork and blockwork.

Students following NVQs and Construction Awards in Trowel Occupations (bricklaying route, at Foundation, Intermediate and Advanced level) from CITB, will find this book to be an invaluable source of information which will accompany them throughout their studies. The text has additional relevance to BTEC National and Higher Nationals in Construction, as well as GNVQ Intermediate and AVCE Construction and Built Environment courses. Building professionals concerned with the design, detailing and specification of brickwork will also find The BDA Guide to be an essential reference.

* Updated throughout in line with the new European Standard for Bricks EN 771-1
* Written by a team of experts from the Brick Development Association (BDA) - the representative group in industry for brickwork construction
* Highly illustrated to show key brickwork techniques in practice

5.0 out of 5 stars All you wanted to know about Bricklaying, 4 Nov 2008
By Rick Hughes - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is produced by the Brick development association, and it will probably become a classic in it's own right, and follows on from many of the required reading books for Bricklaying Apprentices.

In one single book it contains all the details necessary to gain a full understanding of Bricklaying skills.
With sects on Preparation, Bricklaying Techniques, Good Practise, Accessories, Specific Considerations, background tasks.
Unlike many of the standard books on Bricklaying this is bang up to date, featuring tools & methods that relate to the site practises of today.

The level of detail is immense, but laid out so well that it is easy to follow. There are hundreds of line drawings to enable anybody contemplating bricklaying themselves, or supervising a SelfBuild to have a first rate grounding in Bricklaying - highly recommended.
