Until now, however, there has been no framework to describe or evaluate it. Manual of Section fills this void.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Lewis, Marc Tsurumaki, and David J. Lewis have developed seven categories of section, revealed in structures ranging from simple one-story buildings to complex structures featuring stacked forms, fantastical shapes, internal holes, inclines, sheared planes, nested forms, or combinations thereof. To illustrate these categories, the authors construct sixty-three intricately detailed cross-section perspective drawings of built projects—many of the most significant structures in international architecture from the last one hundred years—based on extensive archival research. \u003ci\u003eManual of Section\u003c\/i\u003e also includes smart and accessible essays on the history and uses of section.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton Architectural Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47057654907120,"sku":"9781616892555","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781616892555_p0.jpg?v=1763852658","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781616892555","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
