What's inside
The Architect's Handbook of Professional Practice, Fifteenth Edition published by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) is the definitive guide to architectural practice — the comprehensive, authoritative reference that has provided firms and individual architects with the latest guidance on business, legal, and technical trends in architecture since 1920. Published by Wiley, this landmark resource is the most complete and respected professional reference in the field of architecture.
The Fifteenth Edition features nearly two-thirds new content, comprehensively covering all aspects of contemporary architectural practice. Updated material addresses: small-firm practice and the use of technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM); project delivery methods including Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and architect-led design-build; career development and licensure for emerging professionals; state-mandated continuing education requirements for established architects; and critical business management topics including organizational development, marketing, finance, and human resources.
Additional coverage includes research as an integrated aspect of architectural practice with topics such as evidence-based design, sustainability and green building practice, risk management, project management, construction administration, and the evolving legal and contractual landscape of architectural services. The handbook provides the essential knowledge base for every architect navigating the full complexity of professional practice in the 21st century.
Indispensable for licensed architects, emerging professionals pursuing ARE (Architect Registration Examination) licensure, architecture faculty, and architecture firm principals and managers. The essential professional reference for anyone practicing, teaching, or studying architecture at the highest level. A #1 Bestseller in Architecture Project Planning & Management.
