"Building Adaptation is intended as a primer on the physical changes that properties can undergo during their service life. It is also a practical guide covering the general principles, techniques and processes involved in the alteration, conversion, extension, improvement and refurbishment of existing buildings. Numerous illustrations and examples are included that focus on a wide variety of different building types. Professional building surveyors, architects, construction managers and engineers should find this a welcome addition to their library and it is essential reading for degree and diploma students of these disciplines."--Jacket.
