Abstract
Architecture, building and civil engineering are encountered everywhere; in monuments or ruins from the past, in the engineering feats of the industrial age or the modern buildings crowding our city centres. The English and German technical terms for civil engineering and construction machinery and equipment have already been compiled in a dictionary published like this one by the Bauverlag GmbH, Wiesbaden. This dictionary rounds matters off. Technical terms abound in architecture just as they do in any other branch of art or engineering. Anyone interested in architecture, whether as a specialist, art lover, student or layman, cannot hope to understand it without first mastering its concepts and the technical terms with which they are clothed. The same applies to building and building materials. A concept must be named in order to be understood. This principle is as fundamental today as ever it was and is one we share with our earliest ancestors. This dictionary lists terms for many concepts from the aforementioned fields. Its aim is to help breach the language barrier and facilitate the perusal of architectural publications and trade journals in English and German. (orig.).
