Definición

  • The justification for public involvement in setting construction and maintenance standards through building, housing, and other codes has its origins in 19th-century concerns about the spread of disease and pestilence in densely populated cities. Outbreaks of tuberculosis, typhoid, cholera, and smallpox drew reformers’ attention to deplorable housing conditions. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Housing; Health Codes]
