Book Synopsis

This handy book brings together a wealth of useful information that building surveyors need on-site or in the office. It provides clear guidance and fundamental principles in key practice areas such as building pathology, building performance, and building forensics. The book is not overly bound by the regulation and legislation of one region, and the principles can be applied internationally.

Compact, portable and easy to use, the Building Surveyor's Pocket Book helps surveyors, anyone studying for their RICS APC and students get access to the basics, fast.
