Question

importance of rectangle,squares shapes in convectional building and why no other shape is used? substantiate

Answer 1

Rectangularity and square in buildings has much to do with the

force of gravity.
Floors are flat so that we, and pieces of furniture, can stand easily on them. Walls and piers

and columns are made vertical so that they are structurally stable and the loads they carry are

transferred directly to the ground – although there are obviously many exceptions. Larger buildings as a

consequence tend to be made up, as geometrical objects, from the horizontal layers of successive

floors.
