Author in his many years of experience in Civil practical handbook on building maintenance which can act as a ready reckoner for management and technical solutions of these problems. Prompted by these feelings the author himself dared to prepare such a practical handbook. The results of his efforts are in your hands. The approach of the book is very methodical, practical and user friendly and makes it unique from all other books available on the subject. We hope that the book will be immensely useful for all personnel engaged in building maintenance works. The author has also written some more technical books listed elsewhere in this book. Apart from his main profession, Shri Gupta is also the author of various mind management and health management books as a matter of personal interest.
