Editorial Reviews

Review

"An easy-to-read approach to the subject... It would suit those who aspire to take on such work on a DIY basis or those who are relatively new to the design, submission and construction of alterations and extensions as a profession." - Building Engineer magazine

"The book should be praised for its clarity and ease of reading." - Structural Survey (review of the 1st edition)
