"The Architect's Studio Companion: Rules of Thumb for Preliminary Design" by Edward Allen. I use this book daily as a reference for sizing things like stairways, deciding how many vents a particular room should have, the height windows should be for daylighting, etc.

"Architectural Graphic Standards" published by the American Institute of Architects
