Modemy:/ I believe in K.I.S.S (Keep It Simple & Stvpid). After perusing the complex, complicated and confusing land purchase and Approval process (not excluding the ridiculous litany of acronyms) in Lagos State, I will never venture into any real estate development in that State even in the next life. Those who love stress can go ahead. / 2 Likes |

twinskenny: Snr. Engr Twinskenny, I’ll report you o! In Nigeria, once you take up a supervisory role on any construction project (even if it’s a septic tank) and you’re the making all the decisions and payments and all sorts - you’ve automatically become an engineer. If you now manage to put one construction hardhat at the back of your car, you’re a big engineer. If you manage to drive any truck ![]() ![]() _______ Some clients do give their supervisors these names just to massage their ego. “I’m using an Engr. on my project ![]() The question to ask is “What do Engineers really do? Setting the stage, picking the best players and watching out for things that can undermine result is not an Engineers job. I think a PM perfectly fit that description but a lot of things no longer surprise me in Nigeria. Fortunately we have a course in that field - Construction Project Management. Buying granite and cement is not what engineers do ![]() ![]() ________ I did a project sometimes ago, we engaged Certified Professionals as Consultant Engineers and they only show up at every critical stage of work to cross the t’s and dot the i’s. |

n3xt: No one sees his design flaws except it's sent out for criticism. Though there's actually no perfect design. Some are appreciated. But many of those appreciated are what the clients finally wants or the best of the designer at that time given the circumstances. Many a designer are great in 3D outlook( exterior) of their builds but the flowness of the internal is nothing to write about not even like a pinch of salt. 1 Like |
