Maybe I used the wrong word, perhaps I should have used debate instead.

One should go with government and/or proven industry standard.

Role of an Architect in construction

Architects are in charge of design and project planning, and they are also responsible for the visual appearance of buildings and structures. ... Architects have several responsibilities during all stages of a project, from the initial drafts and meetings to the inauguration of a building

Note; several responsibilities means to check design working drawing specifications in accordance with interpretation!

What can make an architect carry out building construction is to have dual experience and certificate


Role of a BUILDER in construction

His role in building development process in general, is to construct the building. He does this by taking charge of the activities on a building construction site in translating designs, working drawings, schedules and specifications into a physical structure.

Here builders are responsible for build ability of the design ( drawing).


Finally we can’t say because (Iya abiye ) native doctors is good. Now claims medical Doctors role.

An architect doesn’t build houses, a builder builds houses under the supervision of an architect.

OP wants to know who he’ll give the job to. I recommend an Architect.

Anyone with basic construction knowledge and can properly interpret a plan can build a house. The collapse we hear of today are as a result of the massive frauds committed on site by the builders. No structural or civil engineer will risk his career by putting less reinforcements on the structural drawings. The problems is either from the client who wants to save more cash then hire a builder or contractor who tells him the reinforcements on the structural drawings are too much, he can find a way around it and still deliver a quality job that's where the problem begins.
What if i say even a copy paste design can still be effective if they are followed on site. Structural drawings says add torsion bars, 3top 16mm reinforcements and 20mm for the gf columns but go to site and you see something totally different, when the building comes down the professionals are being accused when the builder is the one responsible.
An architect can build, so also a civil engineer but will they follow what is on paper? That's the question. It says 1:3:6 on the structural notes grade 30 concrete but who does that anymore, they even go as high as 1:10:10 just because they want more bang for their bucks.
Alot of clients don't do structural drawings anymore, their contractors have convinced them it's irrelevant. A bongallow was to be increased by a floor the contractor told the client not to worry about the structural design, its a waste of funds. However when it crashes tomorrow who wouldn't be blamed.

You are an engineer and you approve the above pipe for your electrical decking piping? Doesn’t add up at all….

We all know that the pipe in the attached picture are inferior.. for decking piping high quality dignity pipe is recommended!!! Now we have to start laying pipes on the floor… something I hate much.

Nearly all the pipes are blocked!!

I think you’re missing my point. That I recommend that the building job be given to an Architect is not saying that he’s the one building the house. He’s merely the lead person and who brings in the other trades like structural engineer and masons, as an example.

The piss poor finished houses in Nigeria is as a result of lack of proper interpretation by masons with no architectural oversight. In my opinion.

clients understands what they are getting into when they have a mason handle their contract so when such building falls like the house of cards they can easily move on. Some clients have this belief that someone who has built over 10 houses knows the job when it could be that the person is just doing rubbish and getting away with it. Clients only do drawings for drawing sake, what they do on site is totally different. I keep saying this any engineer or contractor who doesn't know how to design or produce drawings shouldn't be executing any construction job. How do you know what to do when you can make the drawing presentation?
Structural analysis are done with the help of analysis softwares with a combination of engineering experience and manual calculations too. The software can give Y16 but a structural engineer will have some reasons to up it. When the project begins the contractor decides to use Y12 and his reason is that the hotel he built on a lagoon was done with Y12 and it stood firmly grin

Tyrolean. It's actually cement and sand mixture that is sprayed with a flicker. Then painted with normal paints when dried.

Because if u feed a dog for a year, he or she will remember you a life time.

Humans can spend a life time with you, and still tell you what have you done, even unto their God that create them.

They even kill their own saviour Jesus.

They do lesbians and gayings.

Sodoming and Gomorring

Which animals don't do.

Why ? Humans do these.
