The article reveals the peculiarities of legal regulation of the development of project documentation for construction in Galicia as part of Austria and Austria-Hungary (1772–1918). Project documentation for construction in Galicia as part of Austria and Austria-Hungary was an important component of the urban planning policy of that time. It included several key aspects that regulated both the design process and technical as well as legal points. Considerable attention is focused on the characteristics of project documentation in Austria/Austria-Hungary in the 19th – early 20th centuries, which included a number of elements that ensured detailed planning and implementation of construction projects. The main components of the project documentation of that time were: 1) master plan – the main document that reflected the location of buildings, streets, squares and green areas on the delineated territory; it contained details of the planning of quarters, placement of communications and infrastructure; 2) facade plan (Fassadenansichten), which described the appearance of the building from all sides; this plan demonstrated the architectural style, finishing materials, location of windows and doors; 3) technical specifications (Technische Spezifikationen) – description of materials such as brick, concrete, wood and others; instructions for construction, engineering systems, ventilation; 4) structural calculations (Statische Berechnungen), which included technical calculations confirming the strength and stability of building elements such as foundations, beams and walls; 5) engineering systems (Haustechnik); 6) cost estimate (Kostenvoranschlag) – cost estimate, cost calculations for materials, work, equipment and other costs related to project implementation; 7) permits (Genehmigungsunterlagen) from local authorities; 8) location on the site (Lageplan) – the location of the building on the land plot, its connection with the existing infrastructure, streets and neighboring buildings; 9) visualization, which aimed to demonstrate the appearance of the building and its architectural features in a real context. It is emphasized that the production of project documentation for construction in Galicia as part of Austria and Austria-Hungary was a complex and structured process that ensured the quality and compliance of construction projects with the then requirements and standards. It covered architectural, structural and engineering plans, and included clear approval and control procedures. These processes helped ensure the organized development of urban and rural areas, in accordance with the needs and opportunities of that time. The project documentation was detailed and comprehensive, ensuring comprehensive coverage of all aspects of construction. This helped to avoid mistakes, ensure compliance of projects with technical and legal requirements, as well as effectively manage resources and costs.
