Whois & Analysis for up.codes

A building code (also building control or building regulations) is a set of rules that specify the standards for constructed objects such as buildings and nonbuilding structures.

Buildings must conform to the code to obtain planning permission, usually from a local council.

The main purpose of building codes is to protect public health, safety and general welfare as they relate to the construction and occupancy of buildings and structures.

The building code becomes law of a particular jurisdiction when formally enacted by the appropriate governmental or private authority.

Construction is the process of constructing a building or infrastructure.

Construction differs from manufacturing in that manufacturing typically involves mass production of similar items without a designated purchaser, while construction typically takes place on location for a known client.

Construction as an industry comprises six to nine percent of the gross domestic product of developed countries.

Some states are subject to external sovereignty or hegemony, in which ultimate sovereignty lies in another state.

States that are sovereign are known as sovereign states.
