Much greater emphasis is given to the three core themes of the book - Environmental Sustainability; Innovation; and Design. An increase in the visual material included reinforces the critical role of Design, aiding students to better translate conceptual designs into built artefacts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBuilding upon solid teaching practice from the previous edition, \u003ci\u003eArchitectural Technology\u003c\/i\u003e is now more concisely structured to take the reader through the whole life cycle of a building, emphasising sustainability and building performance. Material on digital information, building information modelling (BIM) and information communication technologies has been updated. Most chapters have been re-titled to emphasise the importance of design and make the book more accessible to a wider range of students. Chapters conclude with updated\/more extensive links to further reading.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eArchitectural Technology, 2nd Edition\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridges the knowledge gap between design and construction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTackles the core subjects of management, technologies and design from a sustainable building angle\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAddresses the buildability and performance of a design from a whole life perspective\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThoroughly revised and updated this undergraduate level textbook is essential for Architectural Technology courses.
