The Fina and Sabat. The diagram shows how the Fina is utilized. It is an invisible space about 1.00–1.50 m wide alongside all exterior walls of buildings – primarily alongside streets and access paths – and extends vertically alongside the wall of the building. The principle for the formation of the Sabat is shown as well as various methods for its support. Drawing by the author from Hakim, (1986).
