This book has been written specifically to provide a text for the latest BTEC/EdEXCEL construction technician's course, and it will also be of interest to students taking GCSE in Construction and as an introductory volume for HNC/D students of construction.

The BTEC course units have recently been revised with a greater slant towards sustainability and environmental issues.

This new book will:

- cover the new BTEC syllabus
- be highly illustrated with modern diagrams and plenty of photographs
- introduce basic fundamentals of construction and the environment
- integrate all aspects of one topic to provide better understanding of the subject.
