- catalog abstract "The Construction Industry of Great Britain is a wide-ranging introductory text for students of a variety of construction disciplines: building, building surveying, quantity surveying, civil engineering and architecture. This book gives a detailed picture of Britain's construction industry and how it operates. Construction is a unique industry; it undertakes much of its works on its clients' premises, it has traditionally separated design from production, and it produces goods which generally increase in value over time. Moreover, Britain's construction industry differs from those of other countries, particularly in the fragmentation of its professional activities. This has led to moves towards a more common base in the education of construction professionals, making this publication all the more timely. Containing copious tables and graphs, the book gives an accurate representation of the organization and activities of all parts of the industry, and indicates how these are changing with time. The broad scope of the book will enable those with a particular specialization to obtain a better understanding of construction as a whole, and to appreciate the broader implications of their own field of interest.".
