A professional guide authored by Peter H. Newton for students and practitioners in architecture, building, and civil engineering. Now in its second edition, the manual provides foundational instruction on translating engineering designs into precise working drawings for construction. The text covers a wide range of materials, including structural steelwork, reinforced concrete, and timber, while emphasizing the importance of following British Standards. Readers are introduced to the practicalities of the construction process, drafting office techniques, and the specific requirements for various structural components like beams, columns, and foundations.
