A long-timer in the field of building services engineering and related fields, Bownass offers a step-by-step explanation of the building services design process from the feasibility stage to post-construction design feedback. He describes how compliant and creative designs are matched to the client's project requirements, encouraging design success and repeat work. Generic advice and guidance offered is set in the current legal and contractual context. Of likely interest to building services professionals and students. Annotation c.

Building Services Design Methodology clearly sets out and defines the building services design process from concept to post-construction phase. By providing a step-by-step methodology for students and practitioners of service engineering, the book will encourage improved efficiency (both in environmental terms and in terms of profit enhancement) through better project management. Generic advice and guidance is set in the current legal and contractual context, ensuring that this will be required reading for professionals. The book's practical style is reinforced by a number of case studies.

This book clearly sets out and defines the building services design process from concept to post-construction phase. It encourages improved efficiency (both in environmental terms and in terms of profit enhancement).
