  • Abstract
    The security of buildings can be influenced by aspects of building design and urban planning. The paper reports on progress of research at the Building Research Establishment, to assess the effectiveness of these measures and to develop a strategy based on risk assessment. Such a strategy will allow designers, the police and others to assess the most effective combination of design and other measures to counter domestic burglary and other crimes
