Book excerpt: In order to succeed in construction or design, you must understand the basic terminology. While most texts are written for architects or engineers, this dictionary was written by a contractor with more than 25 years' experience in the trades, and his wife, a former teacher. Each definition has been written in language that is easy to understand - because we believe that construction should be simple. It should be about the love of the craft, not unraveling the complexities of contracting. With more than 500 definitions and over 50 color photographs taken from their own job sites over the years, Greg and Dominique have created a dictionary that anyone can use - on the job site, in an office, and even in a classroom. It is for general contractors, remodelers, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, HVAC contractors, masons, roofers, drywallers, architects, engineers, laborers, designers, teacher and students.
