Creating an appealing overall look as well as a distinctive image for each shop...integrating communal areas...handling parking and public facilities...these are just some of the challenges facing the designers of modern shopping malls. Shop and Malls features dozens of remarkable examples of successful malls, each one showcased with floor plans, insightful text, sketches, and full-color photographs that show how the designers met the retail challenge. Shop and Malls is a one-stop shopping resource for design professionals, architects, and urban planners.

Review
'All five volumes provide vital information for consultants and contractors to size up the prospects of finding work in the region and carry out feasibility studies. Within each volume, a chapter is devoted to each country, giving main economic and construction indicators, cost data on labour and materials, unit rates for 60 construction work items, approximate estimating rates for a range of building types, and addresses of useful contacts.' Building
Product Description

Spon's Construction Resource Handbook is the first book to present critical information about materials, labour and plant constants required for the estimating process under one cover. It covers all areas of the construction industry and will provide all those involved in the preparation of tenders, cost estimates and first-stage estimates with the information they need to work with greater confidence and prepare more accurate estimates and tenders. With a unique style of presentation, it includes thousands of item descriptions and a comprehensive collection of data, including labour and plant outputs, materials, elemental breakdowns and lists of relevant organizations.
Up-to-date and comprehensive, Spon's Construction Resource Handbook will be an indispensable reference for estimators, quantity surveyors, engineers and architects working in local government and professional practices, government agencies, and contractors in all fields of construction. It will provide an invaluable reference base for negotiation of new rates where variations occur on a contract.

Materials for Civil and Construction Engineers, 3/e is ideal for courses in Civil Engineering Materials, Construction Materials, and Construction Methods and Materials offered in Civil, Environmental, or Construction engineering departments.
This introduction gives students a basic understanding of the material selection process and the behavior of materials — a fundamental requirement for all civil and construction engineers performing design, construction, and maintenance. The authors cover the various materials used by civil and construction engineers in one useful reference, limiting the vast amount of information available to the introductory level, concentrating on current practices, and extracting information that is relevant to the general education of civil and construction engineers. A large number of experiments, figures, sample problems, test methods, and homework problems gives students opportunity for practice and review.
