Challenges of Making Structurally Fit Building Regulations for Architectural Design
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 7
Abstract
The current research examines the interaction of architectural design with building regulations. It attempts to find out the reasons behind the probable structural tensions between architectural design process and building regulations. It aims to provide the relevant rule-makers with new insights into the way building regulations can become more structurally-fit for architectural design. Ten Iranian expert architects with a successful work experience of more than thirty years were interviewed and their views concerning the role and status of building regulations in architectural design, their challenges for the design process and their desired characteristics were sought. The paper concludes that generally expert architects' attitudes toward building regulations indicate their adaptation to the realities of architectural design and in order to be evaluated as structurally fit for architectural design, building regulations should give proper responses to three main challenges: challenge of inner balance, challenge of anticipation, and challenge of accuracy.
