In line with the Dizionari di Architettura series, this publication
is arranged in alphabetical order and covers a wide range
of subjects relevant to construction elements. The detailed
and fully illustrated entries cover technical information
(features, procedures, etc.), as well as components and their
use (types, examples, etc.).
The elements of construction include:
- basic construction elements or their single components (e.g.
pillar, capital, stairs, steps, etc.)
- composite construction elements formed by more than one
basic element (e.g. floor)
- complex construction elements which are (or may be) autonomous
architectural structures (e.g. dome, bay window)
- elements with formal particularities (or synonyms of elements
already known)
- descriptions of particular work or production procedures
Each single entry is characterised by a theme structure which
aims to facilitate consultation of the element in question.
At the end of each entry there are service sections which
provide the reader with operational indications and practical
suggestions, particularly regarding planning.
