Article (7) provides an extensive list of Common Parts, including main supports, foundations, columns, and structural walls. It also includes ceilings, staircases, facades, and roofs as collective property.

This legal classification prevents individual owners from altering components that are vital to the sustainability and safety of the entire building structure.
