A contractor (builder) knows something that engineers don’t, and an engineer knows something that a contractor doesn’t.

So basically this book is a perfect mixture of both, comprising of every single step starting from the knowledge needed for selecting a plot to the final completion/occupancy certificate; and in-between it consists of well established
details and process regarding - Land survey, planning, permits, foundation, plinth, columns, walls, staircases, slabs and beams, plastering, plumbing, wiring, painting, flooring and fixing of doors and Windows.

After my admission in Civil Engineering College, I used to always wonder what is basically civil engineering or how is a house made?

College books were providing knowledge in parts, and never covered the whole process including important small operations needed for it.

Finally after failing to find such kind of book I decided why not write a book instead. So with the assistance of my dad who holds an experience of 15 years in construction business; wrote this book.

I made it with an aim of clearing your concepts about what is building a house is all about. Best for those who wan to start their career in civil engineering
