NBC 206 : 2015 Architectural Design Requirements

NBC 206: 2015 Architectural Design Requirements covers general building design requirements in accordance with the principles stated in the Bhawan Ain–2055 (Building Act). The principal focus is on the safety of occupants in a building during Earthquakes, Fires and Natural Disasters. Due to the limited technical manpower in the country’s construction industry, the code has been simplified for the ease of use and implementation. It is hoped that with the development of manpower and modernization of construction processes, it will be possible to release a more sophisticated set of building planning guidelines in future.
