Introduction to National Building Code and Steps in a Construction project
1) Why are bui ding codes or standards essential for the modeling/ efficiency of drawings in Revit ?
- Buildingcodes essentialfor the modeling/ eff icienq of drawings in Revit
- Buildingcodes address many of a society's most important concerns, includingpublic health and safety, and environmental protection.
- Buildingcodes are used,when we are constructinga building,it gives the standard codes,that prevents from the eartquakes.
- By using the building codes,we can construct the buildingwith the high quality design of the buildings.
- Because they are developed by a democratic and de iberative process that applies improvements incrementally,the buildingcodes a so address cost efficiency and investment value.
- Inlarge part, building codes establish a building's quality,safety and energy performance for years to come,because initialdesign and construction decisions determine operationaland maintenance costs for the life of the building.
- Buildingequipment and other components may be replaceable and upgradeab e,but many aspects of bui dingperformance are "designed in" at the beginning,and are too expensive and difficu t to change.
- Foundations and other parts of the buildingenvelope aretypically in place for 50 years or more.
- Buildingcodes and design and construction decisions affect us every day.
- Some requirements such as fire safety codes and structuraland seismic standards affect us in obvious ways.
- Others,such as lighting qua ity,acoustics and the air we breathe a so have major effects on our health and productivity
- Buildingcodes are used,when we are constructinga building,it gives the standard codes,that prevents from the eartquakes and any other valcanos.
- It saves the humanlives.by usingthe bui dingcodes,we can construct the bui dingwith the high quality design of the buildings.
4) Give examples of different disciplines involved in construction of a project
Ans : Architectural Disciplines
Mechanical Disciplines
Structural Disciplines
Electrical Displines
