The International building code
February 8, 2012 | 
Author The large number of new buildings constructed in recent years, and in previous decades not always achieved quality parameters adapted to the new demands of citizens. As in the surrounding countries, demand ever higher quality in buildings and urban spaces. This demand for a higher quality of the building responds to a conception more demanding of what involves the quality of life for all citizens with regard to the use of the built environment. It also responds to a new requirement of sustainability of the processes undertaken and contractors, in its triple economic, social and environmental dimension.
The process of building, by its direct impact on the configuration of the inhabited spaces, implies a commitment to functionality, economy, harmony and environmental equilibrium of evident relevance from the point of view of the general interest and, therefore, of the policies of the Government. The building sector is also one of the main economic sectors with significant impact on the whole of society and cultural and environmental values involved in the architectural heritage.
With the objectives of improving the quality of the building, and promote innovation and sustainability, the Government approved the International building code. It’s a normative instrument that sets the basic requirements of quality of buildings and their facilities. Through this regulation satisfies certain basic building requirements related to the safety and welfare of persons, which relate, both to structural safety and protection against fire, as the wholesomeness, protection against noise, energy conservation or accessibility for people with mobility reduced.
The Florida building code is divided into two parts, both of a regulatory nature. The first contains general provisions (scope, structure, classification of uses, etc…) and demands that buildings must meet to satisfy the requirements of safety and habitability of the building. The second part consists of the basic documents whose proper use ensures compliance with the basic requirements. Procedures, technical rules and examples of solutions that allow you to determine if the building meets the established levels of provision are contained in them. These documents have no exclusionary character. As a complement to the implementation of the code are created the documents recognized as technical documents external and independent of the code whose use facilitates compliance with certain requirements and contribute to the promotion of the quality of the building.

Housing construction
Citizens offer to form non-profit associations and to engage in housing construction. Between the employer and the contractor will not be intermediate developer interested in profit. As a result, prices can be maintained at the level of the cost. This form of social housing exists in many countries around the world. However, in most cases, real estate remains the property of such associations and does not move to private individuals. These structures will receive land free of charge, the authorities will take care of engineering networks, and housing will provide almost nothing, but to enter into such a co-op can only applicants and benefit recipients. Privatize the apartments they fail and, hence, cannot be and speculation.
Members of the public cooperative after foreclosure share become homeowners, but can remain in the cooperative for joint management of the homeland. Without the support of professionals are not citizens. Operators will be created for them that will help in the Organization and work of the cooperative. If social form to take its place on the market and provide shelter, they will be able to set some price guide and market commercial housing.
The system of housing cooperatives offers to return to the head of the company “housing initiative”. “The issue we struggle for a long time, but the further you go, the more we come to a standstill. Auctions on decrease in the area of housing and public utilities have failed. It’s time to stop reinventing the wheel. Everything new is well forgotten old, housing construction cooperatives has not been too readily available, but remain completely understandable. They should be returned. The co-operative system formed and kept prices. It is worth examining its own and foreign experience and do not walk on the same rake.
Investment contract
Build a House is from the perspective of the buyer is only half done. Block House is six months, monolithic two-three years. Housing construction is carried out on different schemes of relationship developer and administration. The greatest freedom from micro-power structures giving scheme, under which the developer during the auction to buy the right long-term rents station under construction. In this case, the ownership of the building can be registered within six months after commissioning and defects.
Most of the objects (excluding real estate) are based on investment contracts. There are two basic varieties. According to the first, an investor pays off city construction charges: road, kindergarten, school, heat substations, etc. According to the second, an investor is paying the contractual rate built space-both residential and non-residential or their monetary expression. In both cases, the appearance of ownership does not start after the Act of entering of object in operation, and after the Act of realization of the investment contract (the closure of the investment contract). That is, built roads, schools and substations.
And if we are talking about “not a very experienced developer, unpleasant surprises after the acquisition of the project it is unavoidable. As a rule, do not have Metropolitan experience Developers bought the relative advantages of the project. But you need to understand that the “tasty” price is likely to charge that will result in unplanned expenditures.
Today in one of the elite buildings people live without hands documents to property, as officials still ponder the fate of non-residential basement. Therefore, real estate buyers in this House there is neither evidence nor the promised infrastructure on the ground floors. How long this situation, no one knows, even more so now when prices increase and there is the temptation to get from developer more tomorrow than today.
Commercial real estate market in Thailand
Commercial real estate market in Thailand is a chance for anyone looking into the future and does not want to lose the opportunity offered by the world economic crisis action and far-sighted investors.

Add to this unique climate, low prices and a steady stream of tourists from all over the world-and we will get the country in which not only nice to spend the money, but where there are excellent opportunities for their earnings. Due to the nature of the Thai legislation (namely the ban on the apparent possession of the land to a foreigner) should distinguish between the purchase of apartments in the apartment building (condominium) and a plot of land with the House. Many expats and other foreign investors buy house in thailand.
The owner of each apartment will be the certificate of ownership. This certificate is which part of the dwelling house in percentage belongs to each of the owners. If the same quota on foreign ownership of flats in an apartment house has been exhausted, there remains the possibility of buying an apartment in the Thai legal person or a lease. There are several options for ownership of land by lease:
Long term rental at a Thai national, made by the shareholder of the company the buyer but are not entitled to act on behalf of the company. Thus, a citizen of Thailand buys House/land, and you take a lease on 30 years with the right extension. To rent for more than three years has legal force, it must be registered, which entails the costs of registration and payment of stamp duty, which is a percentage of the rental cost for the entire period. Renew the lease can be twice for a period of 30 years (total for 90 years).
Citizen of Thailand, chosen by the buyer or by counsel representing the House/the Earth pledge. This type of ownership is also logged in the land Committee. Additionally, it should be noted that only the owner of the land has the right to lay the land tenant deprived of this right.
