This is an attractive handbook including the model measures of common buildings, rooms and their separate parts. All data were compiled by the Soviet architect Vyacheslav Oltarzhevsky (1880–1966) who was a pioneer in the Soviet skyscraper construction. The same year he together with A. Mordvinov started the construction of Hotel Ukraine, which actually began to rise in 1953 and became the second high-rise in the USSR.
The book features the plans of nursery, kindergarten, school, stadium and other sport constructions, hospital (several types built in the different cities), agricultural buildings, hotel, restaurant, cafe and bar, hair salon, shop, bank, library, cinema, rooms for the billiard sports and the musical performances, etc.
When the book was sent to printing, the revision of standards for almost all types of public buildings was approved. As a result, an errata page listing the new GOSTs was loosely inserted.

According to the Worldcat, the only copy located in Canadian Centre for Architecture.
