- A set of standards that are uniform to all structures.
It protects the construction safety
Modern construction methods
Provides building standards .
- Group A: Residential buildings

- Initiation : To determine the objective of a project and identify its scope and development. Identifying the project stake holders and deliverables undertaking feasible study, developing statement of work.
Planning: A large entity of tasks are dividend into equal parts. Scheduling the tasks , small goal that is precise a major development. Creating project plan, estimating budgets, workflow diagrams, estimating resources, anticipating risks and potential quality of blocks and holding project kick off meeting.
Execution : project management action from initiation to plan. Collaboration , , estimating budgets, workflow diagrams, estimating resources, monitoring quality of work completion, management of budget analysis.
Closure : The completion of project plan. To analyze the project performance , documentation closure, team management , conduction post implementation reviews and accounting for used and unused budget.
- Construction: management of civil works which involves co-ordination of owners, contractors and design team.
Finance and estimating: estimation of cost budget flow activities , accounting financial contracts in business.
Contracts and bids: demonstration of bid practices and effective contracts integrated to construction manager.
Geotechnical : designing foundation and earthquake system to support soil mechanism
Managements : involvement of equipments , machinery resources efficiently economical.
Structural : designing the system of structural members loads for development of dams, bridges etc.
Surveying : they are measured elevation , section axis for topographic conditions to determine property layout and plans.
- Group A : residential buildings
Group B: educational buildings
Group E: mercantile buildings
Group E: mercantile buildings
Group H : industrial buildings
- Design team: helps to finalize the plan , evaluationaries in the project, implementation the design .
Management team : accomplishment of project , execute the design , achieves the satisfactory completion of project .
- As per NBC 2005 , height of the building shall not exceed 15m .
Area limitation , minimum plot size with ground not exceed 75% and not less than 40 sq.m in small and medium town , not less than 30 sq.m in metropolitan area.
