Permitting authorities follow the order of development and agree on documents for individual housing construction according to RSN 70-88. Thanks to them, not only the accuracy of building up the site is determined, but also the layout of the dwelling and auxiliary buildings. This project needs to be well thought out, because what is not displayed in the plan will be recognized unauthorized structure and is subject to demolition or re-approval.
Without permission, that is, before the approval of the plan and receipt of documents, work should not begin, otherwise serious problems may arise. In order to find out exactly what documents will be required to start building, you should read the "Code of rules for the design and construction of SP 11-III-99".

If the height does not meet these parameters and turns out to be lower, then this room will be considered unsuitable for habitation.
How many floors can be built on the site? On an individual plot it is permissible to build three storey building about 9 meters high. In this case, both underground and above-ground premises are taken into account.
Many are interested in the question of what can be erected and how many floors can be built independently on a garden plot? In addition to outbuildings, on a garden plot, you can build a dwelling that is not suitable for registration. When erecting buildings on a garden plot, SNiP should be followed.
