Book on Mexican architectural construction

Can't Post | Private Reply

I am looking for a book title that I might be able to buy in the U.S. which would show how Mexican residential architecture is built and giving the Spanish terminology for construction methods

and techniques. Something like a home drafting and design book, only in Spanish would be ideal.

There are a lot of books covering typical design and construction techniques as found in the U.S. , and I am trying to locate a similar book for the Mexican market. Any suggestions?

Thanks to all who reply!

I can't offer a book title, but I can show you detailed photo stories on a couple of construction projects in Mexico.

D.G.-what a great idea. I would like to see that book as well. Do look at Rolly's sites. They are very interesting and salted with his usual wit. I hope you get some good answers to your question.
