What is the importance of durability in architecture design?

Durability is important in architecture design because buildings are designed to stand the test of time. A durable building lasts longer, require fewer maintenance, and it's more cost-effective in the long run. It's important to design for durability because it ensures the safety of people living or working in the building. If a building is not structurally sound, people and property can be at risk in the event of a natural disaster or unforeseen event. A durable building will also retain its value over time, making it a sound investment. In the end, the durability of a building reflects the quality of life of its occupants.
