authority may demand that the law directly prohibits the carrying
out of this work.

4 If the owner does not comply with the order he has received, he
may be ordered by the court to carry out the compensation, if
the previously agreed time has passed, he is forced by a
sufficiently large continuing compensation.

7 The building authority can permit small parts of the house, which usually protrude
from the houses themselves, for example ground, stairs, light boxes, balcony
(balcony) and the like, to protrude along building and road lines.
8 All exteriors of houses that are free must be made of such material and be
repaired in such a way, for example painted or plastered, that together with
those houses that stand nearby, they give a good overall picture. Also, the
shape and appearance of the building should be in such a way that it fits into
the landscape and surrounding area.
9 Planning height must be approved by the construction authority.

The planning height will be determined taking into account the existing land,
road and neighboring areas. It is also allowed for advanced planning heights,
where the land is laid out in such a way that this is one possibility.

§ 1. Analysis of roads
www.vejsektoren. UK;
www.vegvesen. en, handbook 017)
1 Some roads are to be separated from each other, which is laid or made
into a road, which consists of streets, channels and spaces.
2 The increase will be reduced to the road, if:
a) The public or more than one lute owner have agreed to travel on
the mountain
b) In addition to the town plan, property description, or register,

ensure that it can be used for road purposes.
3 There will be no fire in the road, if:
a) The general public or lot owners, who have consulted, also use it
for travel.
b) A fee is not paid for travel during marking or in any other visible
way.
4 The center line on the road will be technically required

the transfer at the municipality.

§ 3. Construction lines Handbook 017 Road and
street design
1. The building authority may require an adjacent building in front of
the road, which is, due to the second width of the road, to be built
up to 10 m away from the center line of the road + road register.
2. If the building authority complies with par. 1. has required a building

to be moved away from a road line, which may be increased
between this road line and that road line, which will be in the
future, will be required to widen the road.
§ 4. License to take over roads for special use
1. In roads that belong to private and public roads, even if they are
laid out and not made into a road, borings and cables will be laid
and placed like that, which according to the plan of the building
authority is necessary or thrown away.
Owners of unmade roads have an obligation to give access to the
road, which is necessary for inspection and repairs of this
equipment. The contract must always be, before work is started,
a document for damage that should be caused by this cause.
All permits for digging in the road and everything that will be put
in the road or that is removed for the road must be approved by
the city engineer, before digging can begin.
2. If it is necessary to move borings, cables, stands, etc., because

construction is taking place, the builder shall reimburse the
municipality or the building concerned for the removal of these
after removal. The same is true for all of us, we all have to wait
for the road that is forced by the building and which the building
authority can fix.

If we also sell this equipment, which is mentioned in 1, the seller
must give the buyer information about the above-mentioned
compensation obligations or make an agreement about who will

be installed, and within this no part of the land, building, fence or
growth can be more than 1 m above the level of elevation in the
middle of the road in front of the plot in question.

Norwegian norm
§ 6. Avtøka av vegum
1 The building authority may, when a special building consent is

made, decide that the existing roads and exits will be closed or
rearranged, when other road access will be ensured for the
concerned eyes.
2 It is not permitted to block the road with booms or in any other way
block public traffic, without the consent of the building authority
and the police. This consent may be withdrawn.
§ 7. Fence across the road
1 The building authority is authorized to decide that a piece of ground

must be placed opposite the road that runs ahead, otherwise the
mark between the ground and the road will be paid for in another
way.

§ 1. Slav, which arises from the ground
1. In external walls and partitions made of materials other than

concrete, there must be one barrier layer, which is not penetrated
by a slave, about 15 cm above the ground level. If basement walls
or foundations made of concrete go up to the ground level, one
layer of protection must be laid.
If the lowest floor is laid lower than the protection layer, special
measures must be taken to protect the floor. On foundations, the
slav protection and the meeting between the walls and the
foundation must be in such a way that water that seeps in will not
be sucked up by the back wall, but will be carried away.
2. Exterior walls, facing the ground, must be protected on the outside

with asphalt or concrete or another safe way.
3. In crawler beds and other low beds, which are under a floor made of
wood, one layer of concrete, which is at least 8 cm thick, must be

because water seeps out from under a rock, and care must be
taken to ensure that the water is removed.
4. Cots and other spaces that are under the floor must be ventilated.
Under wooden floors, the ventilation must at least be such that in
each of the external walls at equal intervals there will be an air
cleaning opening, the vent, which is not less in number than the
length multiplied by 6 plus 1, where L is the length of the wall
measured in meters.
Air cleaning openings must each have one dimension, which is at
least 150 cm².
The openings must be gridded or similar, so that they cannot be
lost again. In the return beds in the shots, there must be openings
corresponding to the openings in the outer walls.
§ 2. Slevja (condensation)
1. Income and ceiling space must be aired or otherwise used against

sloppiness.

2. Entrances, which also have a new tree or other organic material,

must have ventilation openings placed in such a way that the
entire underside of the entrance will be ventilated. The total
net dimension of the air cleaning openings must be at least
1/500 of the built-up height. Between the income made of
wood and the heated bed, a vapor-like layer must be placed.
3. All constructions must be done in such a way that there is no

slop on both the exterior and interior of the constructions. It
may be noted here that godlike lies must always be placed on
the hot side of the responsibility.

can also be ensured by a single valve in the outer walls; the
other free opening must be at least 30 cm².
Kitchens must also be ventilated naturally through an exhaust

hood, which must be at least 150 cm² in two ways or with more
mechanical ventilation, which can provide a single air supply of
no less than 60 m³ at the time.
4 In toilets and bathtubs, fresh air must be ensured at wind holes,

which may be open and some are at least 0.2 m² or at a valve
with an opening of at least 100 cm².
Fresh air can also be ensured by an air freshening channel or
flap over or under the door.
Toilets and bathtubs must also be naturally ventilated by means
of an exhaust fan, it must be at least 150 cm² in two ways, or

6 The building authority can claim that the requirement for natural
ventilation from kitchens in single-family houses (detached
houses, terraced houses, cottages and similar houses) will be
waived, when the electric ventilation, which has a connection to
the outside, will be done. The building authority can harafturat give a lift
59
regarding the requirements for natural ventilation from sinks

and turkish beds in single-family houses, etc., since the
windows in these beds are too low, or the beds in another way

a larger air supply and the air freshening is still required in

1 Ventilation for rectangular cross-sections must be done in such

a way that the slope between the longest and shortest side is
not more than 2:1, and must not have a smaller opening for a
distance of more than 10 cm.

suck air from more than one bed.
3 Vents must open directly under the ceiling in these rooms, tey
