摘要：Introduction. WHO has highlighted the need to strengthen the relationship betweenhealth and built environment factors, such as inappropriate housing conditions. LocalHealth Rules (LHRs) and Building Regulations (BRs) are tools which provide safety andbuilding hygiene in construction practices. Currently the Italian Government is consideringto establish a National Building Regulation and, related to the following purpose,this paper presents a survey on the status of adoption and updating of LHRs and BRs inItalian municipalities.Methodology. The current Italian state of LHRs, BRs and Municipal DevelopmentPlans (MDPs) have been examined by a survey considering a sample of about 550 cities,with different demographic and geographic features, starting from the previous researchwork by Signorelli et al. (1999).Results. The analysis underlines a serious shortage of updated LHRs, especially in smalland medium-sized municipalities whereas BRs and MDPs are widespread. Only 30% ofthem are previously approved and validated by Local Health Authorities.Conclusion. Starting from a survey, the present scenario of Building Regulations requiresthe introduction of further performance guidelines instead of normative ones and,therefore, the current actions to give rise to a National Building Regulation could beintegrated by building hygiene contents of LHRs.
