Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Most cracks happen because of small movements within and between the material and elements used in the construction of buildings, usually at points of weakness such as at openings in walls for windows and doors. Cracking in Buildings explains the science of cracking in an uncomplicated way, giving those from the building professions who wish to make precise calculations the means and examples to do so.
