Abstract
In this chapter, the terms scalability and normativity in the engineering environment are discussed concerning its natural relationships. Normativity and scalability are intimately related as the determined size of the project must be subjected to all the constraints required by the norms and rules, which can guarantee the social, economic, and environmental needs.
