PropertiesRe: VERY IMPORTANT: Mistakes Architects Make And Should Be Avoided by joshua112: 4:08pm On Jun 04, 2016
Now tell me how the cars entered this building.
The 3d is beautiful, it shows 2 Cars in the compound.
I don't know the cars drove through the gate and made a perfect turn to the right.

Even if the cars where dropped with helicopter. The driver can not open the door. Because it will be obstructed by the fence.

This is what happens when the site plan isn't properly planned.
you are very correct on your observation about architects and their drawing. I am also an architect with over 10yrs experience but from what I observed we have two types of architects ,the office architect then the site architect who is very much involved in construction .by the time you compare drawings done by the two types of architects, you will notice that the site architects has more accurate drawings cos from he's design he already knows what will work on site and what will not work but an office architect with no site experience will only do designs that are aesthetically ok but functionality is zero. Explaining why we also have mistakes is that some 3d are being done by visual artist not all are done by architects that's why you see those mistakes. We also have what we call anthropometrics that we learnt in school which is just a study of how human beings relate to sizes of spaces in buildings, not all architects put this into consideration while doing there design example is car park spaces,setbacks,staircase sizes for both residential and public buildings etc I have a lot on this issue to say but time wont permit me. you can contact me on 08031332857 for your quality architectural drawings.im also into construction

Hello, I just came across this tread and am so happy...thanks guys.
Pls how can I verify that the approved building plan I got from Ogun state Govt, is the genuine approval. My architech handled the process. Just lik the old days drivers license that people do , but we later found out that it was not on FRSC database.
Pls is there a site or method I can use to verify. Don't want Govt to come in 5years time to tell me my building plan approval is not original.
kindly advise. Thanks.
ITS VERY SIMPLE ,PLEASE JUST GO TO THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT PLANNING OFFICE UNDER WHICH YOU JOB FALLS SO THEY CAN VERIFY THE APPROVED DRAWINGS FOR YOU.THANKS
