I got this question during an internship interview.

I'm obligated to ask this question of Building Bye-Laws topic in portion Planning of Building and Colony of Civil Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Correct choice is (a) Building code

For explanation I would say: Buildings must conform to the code to obtain planning permission, usually from a local council. The main purpose of building codes is to protect public health, safety and general welfare as they relate to the construction and occupancy of buildings and structures. The building code becomes law of a particular jurisdiction when formally enacted by the appropriate governmental or private authority.
