This paper studies on influences by setback regulation and height control to building activities through simulating using building form models which satisfy relating regulations in a case of residential zoning area. As result of the study it is clarified that the combination of building form and site figure which could satisfy most easily the setback regulations is oblong in the depth direction and their layout possible range becomes smaller according to the bigger designated floor area ratio (FAR) because its building coverage ratio also becomes bigger. Height control 12m in area of 200% FAR and 15m in area of 300% FAR are easily satisfied and these height control would be effective to realize better landscape using with the setback regulation.
