Price clipped to D/J. This book, now being made available as a published book for the first time, has for fifteen years been one of the most sought-after sets of readymade specification clauses for building work in the UK. These descriptions of materials and workmanship incorporate the wealth of experience and in-use testing of one of the largest builsing authorities in the world. They may be used either with Bills of Quantities, or (with appropriate selection and amendment) on works without quantities, to form the contract specification. In addition to the vast library of clauses themselves (arranged in Work Section order), this manual also contains lists of proprietary names - that is to say, trade-name products considered by the GLC to meet the clause description. At a fraction of the cost of preparing an office specification, this 1000-clause compendium will be an essential tool of tradfe for architects, quantity surveryors, and builders. 438 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) . 9th Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" Tall Quarto. Hardback.
