Publisher's Synopsis
Spreadsheets for Architects Leonard R. Bachman, AIA David J. Thaddeus Spreadsheets for Architects packs a bundle of architectural software into one very compact design tool made to save time and money. This package of ready–to–run templates and companion guidebook incorporates the most useful features of number crunching, database management, technical graphics, word processing, and desktop publishing programs into a single resource. Using the 19 Lotus 1–2–3 spreadsheet templates tailored specifically to architecture you can:
- easily explore the numerous options in the preliminary stages of technical design
- avoid costly redesign during the concluding stages of a project
- and identify "design dead–ends" that can quickly lead to back–tracking.
- Utility spreadsheets (day planner, project schedule, stair design, and roladisk)
- Spreadsheets for structures
- Spreadsheets for lighting
- Spreadsheets for acoustics
- Spreadsheets for thermal control
