It explains how spaces can be vertically or horizontally connected and assembled into larger wholes. The individual elements, such as floor slabs, roofs, openings, and foundations, are described together with their functions and the various possibilities for connecting them.\u003cbr\u003eThe book goes beyond the wealth of possible detail to demonstrate the basic principles of detailing. Numerous specially prepared drawings set forth the principles of components and then illustrate them with reference to realized projects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maarten Meijs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48278973120763,"sku":"9783764386696","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9783764386696.jpg?v=1772490402","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/components-and-connections-9783764386696","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
