In heavy commercial construction, one of the biggest printreading challenges is interpreting information from various locations on a set of prints. Printreading for Heavy Commercial Construction provides printreading experience relating to commercial construction, including sitework, mechanical and electrical systems, and structural steel, reinforced concrete, and finish construction. Activities in the book help develop the skills needed to interpret elements contained on the prints and in the specifications for larger commercial structures. The last chapter is a comprehensive final exam that assesses mastery of the information presented throughout the textbook.
