Avastatava

Avastatava is a Finnish term that functions as an adjective meaning “constructible” or “buildable.” It is typically used to describe a site, structure, or area that is suitable for construction or development. The word is derived from the noun *avastaat* (legacy or fine), combined with the adjective-forming suffix *-va*, which indicates capability or suitability.

In architectural and civil engineering contexts, “avastatava” is often paired with phrases such as avastatava alue (constructible area) or avastatava rakennus (buildable building). The term also appears in planning documents, zoning regulations, and construction contracts where a property’s capacity for development is evaluated. In legal language, specifying that a parcel is avastatava can determine the permissible building heights, setbacks, and functional uses.

A related form, *avastatukseen* (to construct), is used in official correspondence when outlining the intended use of a site or when requesting permission from municipal authorities. The expression underscores the proactive nature of preparing a site for future development, encompassing factors such as ground stability, accessibility, and compliance with environmental guidelines.

Examples of avastatava usage can be found in Finnish cities’ municipal planning texts, where developers submit feasibility reports containing an avastatava analysis. The term is regularly referenced in the building permits process, ensuring that both private and public projects meet the technical and regulatory standards required for safe and sustainable construction.
