Review: If you don't know much about construction, this book will get you started. However, as you dig deeper and starts to ask questions it becomes clear that there might be some unreliable information (see pic): unseasoned lumber should never be used in framing because of the possibility for mold, distortion and so much more. You always want to dry the wood before implementation. So as you read this book, make sure you to follow through with your own research and discuss what you are reading/learning with other architects. 12-14-24 UPDATE Just finished the book and it has been extremely helpful in helping me understand so much about detailing and the industry in general. Yes , some stuff was outdated - very little and probably related to when this book was published - yet I found in it more useful information then not. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about this profession. Also, the references at the end of the book are priceless. 6-20-25 UPDATE I am now preparing to take the A R E (architect registration exam) and this book has been a godsend. I am so much more prepared for the building systems content I am exposed to. When I count my blessings, I count this book twice. I highly recommend it to anyone who plans on going all the way in this profession.
