Publisher's Note How does an architect, engineer, or builder determine how much a standard I-beam will deviate in length when incorporated into a building design? Or how much a precast concrete will shrink in normal temperatures? Now, for the first time, here is a quick-to-use graphics-based reference on allowable tolerances for major building components and construction systems-including all-important accumulated dimensional variations. Professionals will find thousands of standard tolerances that minimize preconstruction problems, settle worksite disputes, aid in construction in supervision, and save time and money at every stage of building!
Industry Reviews A guide to allowable tolerances for the manufacture, fabrication, and installation of construction materials and components. Part 1 brings together information from many different sources to provide graphics- based coverage of all types of standard materials and construction tolerances. Part 2 shows how to calculate allowances for accumulated deviations in dimensions in large structural systems, and also presents on-site installation tolerances to help solve dimension problems during the construction phase of a project.
