Summary
Summary
Revised standard textbook and/or reference on the relationship between mechanical and electrical systems and the buildings they serve. This edition extends the philosophy of the seventh edition (1986), emphasizing the themes of energy conservation and the use of renewable energy sources while keeping readers informed of the major changes in equipment technology wrought by the microprocessor and the computer. A background of college-level mathematics and physics is assumed, and the volume is recognized as an important reference for the national architectural licensing examination.

Choice Review
A well-organized and well-indexed collection of reference information, this work provides theory and design guidelines for systems and for the equipment for heating; cooling; water and waste; fire and fire protection; lighting and electrical wiring; plumbing; elevators and escalators; signal systems; and acoustics for home and industrial settings. All the mechanicals of construction and computerized controls are illustrated with state-of-the-art equipment. Covers practically all areas of architectural engineering, making extensive use of codes and standards. An excellent handbook approach to providing access to information not usually accessible in the same work or even in the same library. First published in 1935, this work was last revised in 1986. Highly recommended for all technical college and engineering libraries.-R. Comeau, New Hampshire Technical College at Manchester
