Introduction

After the building usage types are identified, the next activity is to identify the building sub usage types.

Buildings types can be further classified into various subcategories to go into the granular level of their usage details. The National Building Code of India (NBC) also classifies the building's usage type into the sub usage types which can be seen in the attachment.

Introduction

Buildings can be classified into various categories on the basis of their usage. Different fire stations can have different ontology for building usage type but in order to provide citizens and businesses a uniform experience, it is important that the building usage types ontology is standardized at the state level.

For this purpose, the states can also use the National Building Code of India (NBC), a comprehensive building code, which is a national instrument providing guidelines for regulating building construction activities across the country.

Introduction

After we have created the fire station master, the next step would be to map the Districts, Sub-Districts, and ULBs with the fire stations. The two points that are very important to note here are:

1. All the ULBs in the state may not have a fire department.

2. Usually, only the larger ULBs in the state have a fire department that caters to that ULB at the same time to all the surrounding smaller ULBs and rural areas as well.
