The book is conceived to help the initial design of buildings by providing extensive information about spatial requirements. Most illustrations are dimensioned and each building type includes plans, sections, site layouts and design details. It provides dimensions for almost everything that is ascosiated with building industry, as well as human proportions and minimum - maximum dimensions that come in handy when dealing with furniture design.

Organized largely by building type, it covers the planning criteria and considerations of function and location-and with over 6200 diagrams, it provides a mass of data on spatial requirements. It may lack a couple of dimensioning sets, but then again this is not an issue, because simply enough you can get anything you need by just combining dimensions from each section. Ernst Neufert was a German architect who is known as an assistant of Walter Gropius, as a teacher and member of various standardization organizations, and especially for his essential handbook Architects' data.

Architects' Data is an excellent resource for architects, building surveyors, space planners, and design and building contractors everywhere.Teaching at Weimar's Bauhochschule from 1926 after graduating from the Bauhaus, Ernst Neufert began to collect data about building, in a way of rationalization. I used it for everything - but the thermal properties of various materials was a particularly useful part. During my studies I discovered this book by accident, and ever since it became part of my architecture bibles!

Organised largely by building type, and with over 6000 diagrams, it provides a mass of data on spatial requirements and also covers planning criteria and considerations of function and siting.
