Editorial Review:
Product Description: The Modern Construction Handbook examines the range of construction options available in a concise, illustrated format.
Using examples by well-known designers, each of the book's six chapters focus on a particular aspect of construction, from materials to structure, to walls, roofs, environmental design and internal fittings.

This particular book is a great reference for architectural students. It shows all types of materials, connections of materials, etc. It is a must have.

I have found this book so helpful that it sits immediately adjacent to my copy of Architectural Graphic Standards.
If you follow architectural publications, you will find this handbook catalogs recent noteworthy works that you are familiar with, and many others that you are not. Specifically, this book is organized according to specific building component types (i.e. curtainwall systems, millwork, stairs.) For each of these types, the book offers a color photograph of a built example, and then several blackline details revealing the technical composition required for such an aesthetic effect. The best thing is, the book offers 3+ examples of each component type.
I recommend this book for all practicing architects who are involved in all scales of building types.
