Very Helpful book....
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This was a great purchase that I made based on other reviews. I am using this as a template for our new construction. I would recommend this to anyone interested in building with or without a general contractor. It gave me the confidence (this and 2 other books-see my other reviews) to general our home. Make sure you order the latest edition (5th, I think). I read the reviews and all the reviews were under both the 1st and 5th edition. I have both...dont make that mistake.
Great Book!

Very up-to-date publication. Author's web site provides much additional information. I plan to build using ICF's and Geothermal heat source. Good information available through both the book and the web portal. Clearly the best and most current of the 4 similar books purchased at the same time.
A MUST for new home builders
