Guidelines for building Data Acces Layer with SQL

There are a lot of information on building DAL with ORM ((N)Hibernate, LINQ to SQL). But I can't find any recomendations on doing it with plain SQL or mixed (ORM + SQL) approach.

I wonder, are there any resources (sites, books) on this subject?

Besides common best practices I've got a few points of interest:

• how organize storing of sql strings
• dynamic generation of s开发者_开发技巧ql strings
• transforming queries resultsets to domain objects
• querying associated collections
• minimize boilerplate data access code
