Description of Construction Technology 1: House Construction
This book provides a single text to support the learning process associated with the study of the construction of domestic housing. The text includes a series of learning sessions or modules covering individual components of the topic. Included within the text are a number of review and self-assessment tasks to encourage the student to reflect upon the material rather than simply read through it. The material is set out in such a way as to develop understanding as the reader studies in a structured way rather than providing a base of information in a less directed fashion.

Key other features in the text include:

- Comparative studies. Each element is considered with a comparative study at the end of the learning module dealing with that element. The comparative study attempts to summarise in very simple terms the salient features of the alternative options.

- Case studies. Taken from actual building sites, and with the support of a major national housebuilder, these are used to illustrate the concepts and the reality of the construction of modern dwellings.
