Abacus Construction Index

About this Website


Abacus Construction Index brings together in one place recommended sources of information and advice about architecture and construction in the USA and the UK. It incorporates Archinet UK. The website is a professionally edited directory, and does not accept payment from websites which are included. It is financed entirely from Google Adsense advertisements, which are clearly identified.

The main parts of the website are two sets of Product Guides, for the USA and the UK. Each Product Guide is devoted to a single construction product, such as Sliding Doors or Bamboo Flooring. The Product Guide describes the types of product available and their characteristics; selects and describes recommended websites of suppliers, and provides useful links to relevant organisations such as trade associations. The Product Guides may be browed by product category, for both USA and UK, using the blue navigation buttons to the left.

The USA and UK Resources sections, which may also be browsed using the blue navigation buttons to the left, contain lists of links to other recommended websites relevant to architecture, engineering, and construction. These include advisory websites, associations, and portals.

Abacus Construction Index is edited by Dr. Alex Reid, who qualified as an architect at the University of Cambridge and University College London, and who was from 1994 to 2000 the Director General of the Royal Institute of British Architects, London.
