What is the role of safety in architectural representation?

The role of safety in architectural representation is crucial. Architectural drawings and plans must represent the building and its features accurately, including all safety features such as fire escapes, emergency exits, sprinkler systems, and lighting. Accurate representation of safety features can prevent accidents, injuries, and even fatalities. In addition, architects must also consider the risks associated with the location and environmental factors, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods, and design a building that is safe for its occupants under all conditions. Architectural representation must therefore include detailed plans for safety features and considerations, which can help mitigate potential dangers. Overall, safety is an essential aspect of architectural representation to ensure the health and well-being of those who use the building.
