Welcome to the 2013 Building and Construction Catalog

Dear All,

Welcome to the latest construction publishing from Routledge. You will notice we are now offering books from RIBA as well as IHS BRE Press, Estates Gazette, and Earthscan, so this catalogue covers even more new construction books than last year’s. On the technical side, we have some great books coming out on sustainable design and retrofitting, as well as new editions of leading textbooks, and a new range of guides to NEC3 contracts. 2013 sees our publishing continue to expand, bringing a broader range of research, information, learning materials, and professional expertise to even more people around the world than before. Read on and I’m sure you will find the book you are looking for, or perhaps an even better one!

Best regards,

Brian Guerin
