title: [Safety in planning].
abstract: Our communication wants to stress the importance of choices which must be carried out during the planning stage in order that building works (and especially building hospitals) are realized in a safe environment. It is particularly emphasized the relationship between the regulation in force in matter of public building contracts and that in matter of safety in building process, both in case of new buildings and in case of ordinary and extraordinary maintenance.
