A foundational guide to construction technology, specifically tailored for students and industry newcomers lacking site experience.

The primary focus is on low-rise residential construction, methodically following the building sequence from substructures and masonry to roofs and internal services. Detailed chapters explain the standardized dimensions of bricks and blocks, the chemistry of mortars, and the various bonding patterns required for structural integrity.
