SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps architects and project teams apply Chinese building regulations correctly across design, permitting, fire safety, energy, accessibility, structural, and site-planning decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • National and Local Code Mapping: Interprets GB, JGJ, and DB standards and separates mainland China rules from Hong Kong SAR and Macao SAR regimes.
  • Project Compliance Guidance: Supports climate-zone energy checks, sunlight-rights spacing, seismic intensity selection, fire egress, cladding, and accessibility requirements.
  • Real-World Use Case: Use it when designing a residential tower in Shanghai or a public project in Beijing to identify the applicable national code clauses and local supplements before drawing review.

Quick Start

Review the project location, building type, and regulatory context, then identify the applicable Chinese national and local codes for this site.

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply Chinese building codes to an architectural project?

To apply Chinese building codes, you must select mandatory GB, JGJ, and DB clauses based on your project location and building type. This ensures compliance with local fire safety, seismic, and sunlight-rights regulations.

What are the differences between mainland China and SAR building regulations?

Mainland China building regulations rely on national GB and JGJ standards supplemented by local DB provisions, while Hong Kong and Macao SAR operate under distinct, separate regulatory regimes. Code mapping must differentiate these jurisdictions for accurate permit reviews.

How do I check sunlight-rights spacing and seismic intensity for a site?

Checking sunlight-rights spacing and seismic intensity requires targeting the specific climate zone and local DB provisions. This ensures your architectural design meets mandatory structural and site-planning requirements before construction drawing review.

Does this cover national GB standards and local supplements for construction drawing review?

Yes, it covers mandatory GB, JGJ, and DB clause selection alongside local supplements for construction drawing review workflows. It identifies applicable code clauses for city-level design work, ensuring regulatory compliance.

When do I need to target specific climate zones for energy and accessibility checks?

You need to target specific climate zones for energy and accessibility checks when designing projects in mainland China, as local DB provisions vary by region. This ensures compliance with mandatory energy efficiency and accessibility requirements.
