El Manual de dibujo arquitectónico es el libro que dio fama internacional a Francis D. K. Ching y sus conocidos métodos de dibujo. Esta nueva edición, la cuarta desde que se publicara por primera vez en español en 1976, amplía y complementa la edición anterior incorporando nuevas ilustraciones y nuevos contenidos que hacen referencia al dibujo con herramientas digitales. Se mantiene, sin embargo, el magnífico planteamiento del original que catapultó a la fama a Ching y convirtió este libro en el manual de dibujo arquitectónico por excelencia. Organizado en diez capítulos, el libro expone las herramientas, directrices y técnicas tradicionales de la expresión gráfica en arquitectura así como las claves de la representación visual mediante recursos digitales. El estudiante de arquitectura y diseño encontrará en estas páginas desde los procedimientos básicos para dibujar plantas, secciones y alzados, o los sistemas de representación más frecuentes (el diédrico, la axonometría y la perspectiva), hasta los métodos y convenciones para representar materiales o texturas de suelo, dibujar sombras y valores tonales, o incorporar elementos contextuales como figuras humanas, coches, árboles o mobiliario. En definitiva, un clásico del dibujo técnico arquitectónico que recoge de forma sistemática las técnicas y convenciones que todo arquitecto debe conocer para representar gráficamente ideas y soluciones arquitectónicas.
