Construction Mathematics
Autor Surinder Virdi, Roy Baker, Narinder Kaur Virdien Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 oct 2025
The third edition of this popular textbook is fully updated to match new curricula, including the new T Levels and expanded to include three new chapters on Differentiation, Integration, and Maximum and Minimum. End-of-chapter exercises cover a range of theoretical and practical problems commonly found in construction practice, and an end of unit test based on practical tasks gives students the opportunity to apply all the knowledge they have gained. Key benefits of the new edition include:
- Students learn by tackling exercises based on real-life construction maths. Examples include calculating costs of labour and materials, and setting out of building components using geometry and trigonometry
- Suitable for beginners and easy to follow throughout with a handy revision guide for more advanced students
- Students will learn the essential basic theory along with the practical necessities.

Descriere
Construction Mathematics is an introductory level mathematics text, written specifically for students of construction and related disciplines.
Recenzii
'This is an excellent resource for construction students with step by step instructions helping them to understand and enjoy mathematics. Each chapter has an instruction and methodology section with solutions and testing at the end enabling individual tracking and progression. This book will help my students improve their numeracy skills to achieve their diploma qualification.' Michael Cook, Lecturer, The Sheffield College
'Construction Mathematics has proved to be an ideal text for Construction and Civil Engineering students at National Certificate level, whilst providing Undergraduates with a well laid out revision text. The logical progression of ideas and the simple and clear examples prove valuable to students as they pass onto a higher level of study' Derek Spalton, Senior Lecturer, University of Derby
