While codes and regulations are sometimes seen as obstacles to overcome on the way to good design, the responsibilities of the construction industry (and especially architects) with respect to the health, safety and welfare of the general public are stated most explicitly in zoning ordinances and building codes, which, in fact, present opportunities for disciplined creativity. Principles common to most zoning ordinances and building codes are introduced, the concepts of inclusionary and exclusionary zoning are outlines with respect to their societal significance, and a number of catastrophic building failures are discussed as examples of why building codes might be considered a designer's best friend.
