Building Construction by S.P. Arora & S.P. Bindra: A Comprehensive Guide to Civil Engineering Fundamentals
Moving upwards from the ground, the text navigates through the superstructure—walls, roofs, and floors. One of the book's greatest strengths is its treatment of traditional versus modern construction techniques. In a rapidly evolving field, it is easy for educational materials to become obsolete. However, Arora and Bindra strike a delicate balance. They pay homage to the enduring utility of brickwork and masonry while embracing the innovations of reinforced cement concrete (RCC) and pre-fabricated structures.
