    Robin Barry’s Construction of Buildings first appeared in print in 1958 and eventually
    grew into five volumes. When I took on the task of revising and updating the Barry
    books, a decision was taken to condense the work into two volumes to make it more
    accessible to readers. This was a big task, and it required the input of a former colleague, Christopher Gorse, and the help of many individuals and companies, for which I remain extremely grateful. Working on the books continues to be a process of addition and subtraction to keep the content topical and informative to a wide readership. Now, as a solo‐authored work, it has been possible to further simplify and clarify the content while making the latest round of revisions. This has resulted in repositioning of material and new features, such as ‘How to navigate this book’ and the ‘At a glance’ fact sheets. The repositioning of material, from one volume to another, and within volumes, has helped to ensure a more logical flow of information that better reflects the process of construction. The main changes to each volume are as follows. Barry’s Introduction to construction of buildings.Fourth Edition
