"It provides a valuable bridge between education and practice, between student and architect, and will be an inspiration to all" (from the jury citation for the RIBA Bookshops Award)

"One of the best textbooks in the field of architecture and city planning" (jury citation for the PSP Award [Professional Scholarly Publishing] – the PSP Award is presented annually by the Association of American Publishers to the best textbooks and is highly renowned among professionals – Constructing Architecture received the prize in the category Architecture and Urban Planning.)

This internationally prizewinning volume now appears in its second, revised and expanded edition. Since the first edition was published in 2005, it has been adopted as a textbook at many universities.

Organized into chapters on "Raw Materials/Building Materials (Modules)," "Building Components (Elements)," "Building Methods (Structures)," and "Buildings (Examples)," the book now includes a new section on translucent materials and an article on the use of glass. The chapter on "Building Elements" now includes a discussion of facades, and the chapter on "Structures" has been expanded to cover "Principles of Space Creation." The examples section now includes extensive documentation of current projects whose systematic character is oriented around the production process.

Experience with the preceding edition has shown that the book has become an indispensable handbook for reference and reading not only for students and teachers but also for architects.
