There are various methods in Computational Physics (Hartree fock, DFT, Molecular Dynamics etc) to calculate properties of materials. To understand basics of DFT 'Electronic structure(Basic Theory and Practical Methods)' by Richerd M. Martin is good one. And for how to do calculation using any available DFT codes 'Density Functional Theory (A Practical Introduction' by David S. Sholl and Janice A. Steckel is good one.
