CHAPTER-05



  • BUILDING BYE-LAWS

Every locality has its own peculiarities in respect of weather conditions, availability of materials and labour and thus adopts its own methods of constructions, every locality prepares certain rules and regulations which help in controlling the development of the locality. The rules and regulations covering the requirements of buildings, ensuring safety of the public through open spaces minimum size of rooms, and height of the area limitations are known as building bye-laws. The building bye-laws are necessary to achieve the following objects.

  1. Building bye-laws give guidelines to the architects or engineer and thus help in pre planning the building activities.

  2. Provisions of bye laws usually afford safety against fire, noise, health hazard, and structural failure.

In the absence of suitable building bye-laws, the people will construct residences lacking in amenities and health conditions, with profit as the only motive. Hence only fanning of building bye-laws is not sufficient. If desired results are to be achieved there should be proper authority that could enforce the building bye-laws.


While farming building bye-laws assistance of experts on various subjects such as town planning law, health, civil engineering, traffic, general administrations etc. Should be sought and their views given due weightage. Now the importance of building Bye-laws is being increasingly realized. Indian standard Institution, an organization of Government of India has published I.S. 1256" code of building 4aws" covering all the salient aspects of building activities. Having realized the importance of building bye-laws and also to smoothen the work of local enforcing authorities. Government of India has published National Building Code (NBC). This publication covers all the aspects of building activities and embodies all the relevant Indian standards and thus has been taken as an advisory document by all the local authorities, government and semi-government departments and other construction agencies. The document has been drafted with performance orientation and gives better freedom to architects and engineers. In case of any difficulty or dispute the Provision of N.B.C form the deciding the things
    • IMPORTANCE OF BUILDING BYE-LAWS





  • Building by laws are made to ensure orderly development of localities in urban areas so that every houses is assured of good ventilation and no building affects the lighting and ventilation of neighbors.

  • There has to be laws or regulations binding on the prospective builders, if not, the building constructed will be:

  1. Un-scientific

  2. Unhealthy


    1. GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF BUILDING BYE - LAWS:

The building bye-laws are generally based on the following principles:



      • The building bye-laws should be reasonably rigid and adequately flexible as they have to be sometimes revised according the improvements affected in science and engineering and as per peculiar circumstances existing at the time. These laws should be advantageously used for the common good of the people.


      • Minimum standards should be properly laid down and they should be strictly made to be adhered to by all concerned.

      • Minimum floor space and cubic space per member should be insisted upon.

      • The size of any room should not be less than a specified minimum. .

      • Taking into consideration the number of inmates in the building the minimum window space and sanitary conveniences should be insisted upon. At least one window of the specified size/area should be provided in each room to open either on a street or open yard.

      • The room should receive direct light and air from exterior open space on at least two sides to satisfy ideal conditions of air circulation.

      • There should be some healthy relations between the cubic contents of the room building and open spaces around. The width and extent of the open space depends upon the height of the structure.

      • The height of the building is fixed as per the zone in which it is built. The width of the street should never be exceeded by the height of the building there. .

      • The openings admitting light and air should bear a prescribed ratio to the floor space.

      • The set backs should be correctly followed.



  • THE SET BACKS SHOULD BE CORRECTLY FOLLOWED:


      • The minimum distance between individual buildings should be rigidly controlled. .

      • Necessary water supply and sanitary connections should be made to every unit. .

      • There should be uniformity as regards drainage connections, water supply, gas and electricity. .

      • The buildings should have adequate fire-fighting arrangements if over 69 ft. in height.

      • In fact, it is essential that there should be control over the user of the buildings and control over the materials and construction of the building.
