Is there anyone knowledgeable about the Building Bye Laws ?
Subject is, that I made a small investment in a office space in Faridabad, but the builder seems to be taking us for a ride. He's offering us a unit which looks like a tunnel - just 6 feet wide and 38 feet long.
Apart from the fact that this tunnel type of a layout is useless, I think such a narrow width may not be allowed as per Building Safety laws, as personnel movement and evacuation would be severely restricted during emergencies. So, I need to find out from an architect, if such a small width is allowed as per the Building Bye Laws ? Someone told me that a minimum width of 8 feet is necessary as per Building Bye Laws. Is that true ?
