  Since publication of the first volume of The Construction of Buildings in 1958, the five volume series has been used by both lecturers and students of architecture, building and surveying, and by those seeking guidance for self-build housing and works of alteration and addition. Volume 5, which deals with building services (water, electricity and gas supplies, foul water discharge and refuse storage), has been updated to include changes introduced by the 16th Edition of the Wiring Regulations and regulations on gas supply that concern safety. A new presentation has been adopted for the Third Edition, with text and and illustrations integrated to provide a reader-friendly layout and to aid accessibility of information.
