Abstract
Assuming the need to create safe and healthy environments as an essential priority, the text aims to promote the design and use of organic regulatory tools, able to promote conditions of well-being, in relation to the places where the building is located, the activities that are exercised in the interior of it and the construction methods. This is the need to “accompany” the designers in the evaluation and management of health risks, especially those related to indoor air pollution (IAQ), indicating effective protocols for prevention, control and correction. It is proposed, in a non-manual key but problematic, a reinterpretation of the Municipal Building Regulation; conceptually different, operationally alternative to those in progress. Bringing this regulatory instrument back to its original usefulness and meanings, the aim is to make it reassume a role of control and direction of the building activity, which expresses its effects at the moment of examining the requests for intervention and in the verification of the quality of the constructions. An objective that can be achieved only through collaborative actions and according to common and shared methodological and operational lines, between structures operating on the territory, with different technical-building and hygienic-sanitary competences.
