BY-LAW 37
PROJECTIONS OVER THE STREET AND OVER THE BUILDING LINE
1 At street junctions, where no splay/rounding is shown in the approved plan, building corners must be splayed or rounded up to ≥5 m above street level at the intersection. Below this height, no part of the building may project beyond a straight line joining points 23 m from the street-line intersection.
Rooms must have natural lighting and ventilation, including one or more windows with a clear floor area of at least 15 square feet and openings that allow for uninterrupted airflow of at least 10% of the floor space. Air passage >10% clear floor area
Rooms must have natural lighting and ventilation through one or more windows with a total area of at least 10% of the clear floor area and openings capable of allowing free uninterrupted air passage of at least 5% of the floor area. Natural lighting ventilation >10% clear floor area
Where buildings abut on a street, projection over the street for open, verandahs, balconies or sunshades projections may be permitted on the following basis:
Natural lighting ventilation >15 square feet
Width of street in metres minus 10 metres 2
Projection =
Permitted projection ≤ 1.25m from the street approval line.
Air passage
2 Canopies over entrances exceeding 1.25m may be permitted the discretion of the local authority.
3 All such projections shall be at least 5m above the level of the road.
Rooms must have natural lighting and ventilation, with windows covering at least 20% of the clear floor area and openings that allow for uninterrupted airflow of at least 10%. Natural lighting ventilation >20% clear floor area Air passage
Rooms must have one or more openings with a total area of at least 0.2 square meters. These openings must be able to allow free, uninterrupted airflow in order to provide natural lighting and ventilation.
2.5M
2.5m to 5m, projections ≤ 500 GF to 2.5m, projections ≤ 1.25m
4 Where a building line is prescribed for a street set back from the regular line of street, projections above the ground floor may be permitted, provided they do not 1.83m or half the building frontage to the building line.
PROTECTION OF BUILDING STRUCTURES AGAINST LIGHTNING STRIKES
New or renovated non-residential buildings with air-conditioned space ≥ 4,000 square meters shall be- (a) meet the requirements of MS 1525 with: Overall Thermal Transfer Value (OTTV) and the Roof Thermal Transfer Value (RTTV) (b) provided with an Energy Management System.

Required Yard
1 The assessment of risks and provision of measures to protect building structures against lightning strikes shall comply with the requirements set out in MS IE C 62305.
1 Any verandah-way or uncovered footway shall be ≥ 2.1m wide, though piers or columns 600mm deep from the street boundary may be permitted.

2 For the purpose of paragraph above, "MS IEC" means the latest published edition of the Malaysian Standard which is identical to the International Electrotechnical Commission Standard
2 The roof for all buildings shall not have a thermal transmittance (U-value) greater than
(a) 0.4 W/m2K for Light (under 50 kg/m2) weight roof (b) 0.6 W/m2K for Heavy (above 50 kg/m2) weight roof unless provided with other shading or cooling means.
2 The width of a verandah-way shall be measured from the street boundary to the nearest wall or part of the building (excluding external verandah
Simple lighting rod piers), and all dimensions shall ≤ 600mm be measured at pavement level.

4 Where there is a change in level between adjoining footways, steps shall be provided with risers 150mm and treads ≥ 275mm, or a pedestrian ramp with a maximum gradient of 1 in 10.
5 Where a service road is provided, the required footway shall be constructed along the line of the street.
