Karachi-specific things that change the cost
- Approval: plans are approved by the Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA); setbacks and the number of floors depend on the scheme and road width.
- Soil and water: salty soil and sub-soil water in many areas call for sulphate-resisting cement in the foundation and good waterproofing.
- Water tanks: an underground tank is standard because of supply timings, which adds to the grey structure.
