Basics Gebäudetechnik

The field of building technology is becoming increasingly important with the growing complexity of construction. As a mediator between all parties involved in a project, the architect must understand the interconnections and be able to advise clients competently. Basics of Building Technology deals with areas such as water supply and disposal, electrical installation, and energy-related topics like heating, ventilation, and lighting. This compendium combines the successful individual volumes on room conditioning and the water cycle in buildings and adds two new, previously unpublished volumes on electrical installation and lighting design. Students and architects receive a practical overview of the fundamentals, terms, and systems of building services and facilities in a clearly structured format.
