Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributing to our understanding of medieval and early-modern urban form, this collection of essays focuses on an important yet relatively unexplored historical subject: building regulations. Unlike contemporary planning laws and building codes, building regulations in pre-industrial times did not form a consistent planning code, since most of them were based on customs and social values that guided specific individual and community behaviour in relation to the built environment. Nevertheless, in periods of great urban growth there was also an increase in the rules established by local or central governments in order to control urban development. Identifying the building regulations devised in different cultural, geographical and temporal spaces, this volume analyzes their physical impact on urban form.
