What is the role of zoning regulations in architectural technology?

The role of zoning regulations in architectural technology is to provide guidelines and criteria for the design and construction of buildings and structures within a specific area or jurisdiction. Zoning regulations determine what types of structures can be built in certain areas, as well as their height, setback, and coverage requirements. These regulations also outline the necessary permits and approvals required to construct or modify buildings, and they ensure that properties are developed in a safe, healthy, and sustainable manner. By meeting the zoning requirements, architects and builders can create designs that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional, while complying with the local codes and regulations.
