Architects Data

Architects Data 3rd Edition is an essential reference for the initial design and planning of a building project.

Organised largely by building type, and with more than 6,000 diagrams, Architects Data 3rd Edition provides a mass of data on spatial requirements and also covers planning criteria and considerations of function and siting. Most illustrations are dimensioned and each building type includes plans, sections, site layouts and design details.

Architects Data 3rd Edition contains substantial new sections on:

• building components
• services
• heating
• lighting
• thermal and sound insulation
• fire protection
• designing for the disabled.

An extensive bibliography and a detailed set of metric/imperial conversion tables are included.

Since it was first published in Germany in 1936, Ernst Neufert's handbook has been progressively revised and updated through 35 editions and many translations. This 3rd Edition of the English-language version has been revised for the first time in 20 years and completely reworked.
