All man-made developments are required to adhere to design standards imposed by local building regulatory requirements.  A high proportion, in the order of 70-80 percent of the regulatory provisions, is related to assuring that the design is safe for use or occupancy against any foreseeable hazards, both natural and man-made.  A similarly high proportion of the design requirements are provided to mitigate fire related hazards.
