A: Local ordinances
B: Building codes
C: Local zoning
D: American Institute of Architects

参考答案: B

本题解释:
A local ordinance is a law usually found in a municipal code;The main purpose of building codes are to protect public health, safety and general welfare as they relate to the construction and occupancy of buildings and structures. The building code becomes law of a particular jurisdiction when formally enacted by the appropriate authority;Zoning is a method of land use regulation used by local governments in most developed countries. Zoning may be use-based (regulating the uses to which land may be put), or it may regulate building height, lot coverage, and similar characteristics, or some combination of these;The AIA is a leading professional membership association for licensed architects.
