Description
In this paper, the authors try to present the many advantages of designing buildings for collective housing by applying the minimum height of stories allowed by standards. In the paper, the advantages from different aspects are presented such as urban, architectural, energy efficiency etc, while the most particular emphasis is given to the structural aspect, for this purpose, are presented results of the structural analysis for a building with the height of the stories that is usually applied and, in a comparative manner, are presented results for the same building but with the minimum height allowed of the stories. The regulations and design standards recommend the minimum height that the residential floor can have. Through the elaborations presented in this paper, it is intended to provide important information that can be applied in the design of multi-storey buildings for collective housing. As can be seen from the conclusions drawn, the advantages are great and quite valuable, therefore, at the end, some recommendations are also given for the application of the construction of buildings with minimum story height.
Keywords:
Minimum floor height, design, different advantages, efficiency, performance of the building.

The regulations and design standards recommend the minimum height that the residential floor can have.
