À propos

I have a master's degree in architecture from the University of Texas at Austin, practiced architecture for 63 years and authored three technical books on the subject:
Time Saving Techniques for Architectural Construction Drawings, Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1993
Time-saver Details for Exterior Design, McGraw-Hill, 1995. (a Chinese edition was also published)
Architectural Quality Control, McGraw-Hill, 2002.
I was employed by firms in Texas, North Carolina and Boston as a Project Designer, Project Architect and Technical Adviser specializing in the final checks for many major projects. In 1991 I established Architectural Consulting Services in Boston to provide quality control and coordination on their major projects. I retired in 2002 to devote my time to writing.
