"The Metric Handbook" deals with all the principal building types from airports, factories and warehouses, offices shops and hospitals, to schools, religious buildings and libraries. For each type the book gives the basic design requirements and all the principal dimensional data, as well as succinct guidance on how to use the information and what regulations the designer may need to be aware of. As well as buildings "The Metric Handbook" deals with broader aspects of design such as materials, acoustics and lighting, and general design data on human dimensions and space requirements. "The Metric Handbook" is a unique authoritative reference for solving everyday planning problems.It has sold well over 100,000 copies worldwide to successive generations of architects and designers - this is a book that truly belongs on every design office desk and drawing board.
