Technical FAQ & Regulatory Compliance

1
What is the purpose of side setbacks?

Side setbacks are essential for ensuring fire-fighting access, cross-ventilation, and privacy between adjacent buildings.

2
Can setbacks be used for parking?

In some cities, open spaces (setbacks) can be partially used for parking or greenery, provided a 3-6 meter clear path for fire tenders is maintained.
