Reference Publications

RSMeans publishes more than 60 references on construction and facility management topics. The Estimating series complements RSMeans' annual cost data publications. The Standards series includes the highly acclaimed Illustrated Construction Dictionary (now with expanded data and graphics on a CD-ROM) and Residential & Light Commercial Construction Standards, also well known in its industry.

Facilities titles address building assessments and planning and budgeting for new construction, maintenance and repair. The "Builder's Essentials" series provides residential and light commercial contractors with business, estimating and construction guidance.

Other references offer instruction on scheduling, business management, value engineering and life cycle costing, and design and selection of building systems, including sustainable building materials, security systems, and ADA and historic building remodeling. RSMeans' consumer publications help homeowners price remodeling projects.

Many authors are nationally and internationally known, and several books have been produced with active involvement of leading professional associations in the fields of architecture, engineering and construction.
