ARCHITECTURAL AND CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS IN THE DESIGN OF LOW-RISE RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS
, 2023 It is necessary to adopt architectural and engineering solutions, taking into account all the requirements for the object under construction. Architectural design affects the economic, technical, sanitary-hygienic, ecological, design and other aspects of residential buildings and structures, which are used as a basis for their further construction.

influence of plasterboard clad walls on the structural behaviour of low rise residential buildings
Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2002 While the design and technology of conventional low rise light framed residential structures are relatively simple, their response to lateral loading is quite complex. This is due to the high degree of redundancy, the irregular geometry and interaction between the structural and non-structural components.
