A couple months ago I got an email from Bobby Person at VCengage Learning. They are the published of DeWalt's series of books-on Building Codes, Electrical Codes, etc.Construction Reference guides, exam guides etc. are all covered.
Cengage was looking for someone to write a book on building decks, which they thought I might be qualified and interested...sad to say I'm not a deck builder but as I posted a blog on the search, Bobby was good enough to mail me a couple of books to look at.
I asked for the Building Code Reference
and the Construction Professional Reference book
and got them shortly after our email exchange.
Reading through these 2 books, I am left with a very good impression...I especially like the Building Code Reference book, it's wire bound binding and heavy glossy pages look like they'll take a lot of abuse and use in the field which is where they should be used!
Take a look at the whole series, maybe one of their many available titles would interest you...here are a few I thought would be of interest. Disclosure-I received 2 books free from Dewalk/Cengage. No other compensation is expected.
Walking deck systems are the best choice when looking for lasting solutions for your new deck. Many of our visitors want an alternative to a wood or composite deck. Walking decks give you many advantages! Class A fire retardant, these systems have many decorative choices. Longer life, lower maintenance, lower total cost of ownership. You'll be the envy of the block. Read our free information on roof decking systems. Find information on railings, tile decks, deck lighting and more.
