nice TS.... nindot imong thread....



pwede mana bro pero ang imong name sa construction company kay proxy name dli direct nmo... most likely kay manguntrata na lng gyud ta mga arki kay lisud kaau kung sa design ra ang g saligan...

SA MGA AMIGO/SILINGAN nga INATO lang ang style....
Prof. Fee: ( sa mga walay idea ako ei share)
Ang 10% himuon og 1% atakz kaau...usahay mo ingon libre kay silingan/amigo...
kung ang budget sa balay kay 1.5m possible ma kobra nmo kay 150k if 1% 15k na lng.. unya mag bayad paka sa
master plumber 800php per CR,
electrical engineer 20php per square meter, if 1 storey og INATO ang rate
mechanical engineer 10hp per square meter, if 1 storey og INATO ang rate
structural engineer 25php per square meter...if 1 storey og INATO ang rate
soon if techie imong haws kay mo kuha ka og services sa ECE...
unya ang tax sa BIR na 3% sa 10% income sa arki...dili ang 1%
plot per page 100php if 10pcs = 1k nah...
blueprint 7pcs per sheet = 12php per sheet...

ako ei pakita ha...
15,000 fee sa 150sq mts house..
- 2 cr's (1,600) = 13,400
- Electrical Engr (3,000) = 10,400
- Mechanical Engr (1,500) = 8,900
- Structural Engr (3,750) = 5,150
- plot 10sheets (1000) =4,150
- bluprint (840) = 3,310
income sa 2 months na pag antos kay 3,310php
ang BIR tax kay dili bayran kay ang tax kay (4,500) unya imong income 3,310php

hehehe..... sa akong amigo iyang g share kay iyang mga kaila kay bayran ra xa og 10k... kay drawing2x ra daw nah.... ana xa maypa kamo na lng pag skwela og 5 yrs unya take og board exam sa manila... hehehe.....

Mao ni nightmare sa mga architects, ingnun lang kang drawing2x ra ato work.
pangutana ana,,diin na gikan ang gipangdrawing, giunsa na pagcome-up nang mga drawing para matranslate na into reality,, di bana makadaot sa palibot? nagsubay bana sa balaod? sakto ba kaha ang mga sukod ana para komportable ang mogamit? luwas ba gamiton nang gipangdrawing nato kung tukuron na? matukod ba kaha na? kaigo ba ba ang budget? mo-generate ba ug income?(for commercial projects), di ba dali madaot kung naa mga kalamidad? ug daghan pa kayo nang mga pangutana nga angay tubagon ug ang tubag, makita na sa drawing... kining tanan, mabuhat ba kaha na kung ordinaryo lang ka nga kamao modrawing?,..

i think naa kuy nalimtan, what i try to point out also is dili pwede or it should be avoided nga ang architect ug contractor, isa ra ka taw sa isa ka project.. pwede mn architect mokontrata but dili iyang project. wa mn ku magpugong sa mga arki mangontrata,,basta di lang pud mangunay sa ilahang project kay luoy ang client, disadvantage pud kung ikaw na architect then contractor sa project kay humot kaayo ka sa BIR.

bro, its your duty to pay your taxes and its a wrong statement that its a "disadvantage". Its like you do business, then pay your taxes. You have a point there in large scale projects that an architect should not be the contractor as well. But ani ra man na bro, as what i told you daghan pud nangontrata halos dili man gani in line to construction industry na mga professionals (kana if kabaw ka), Ikaw na Architect, ikaw sweto sa imu design, why not if given a chance na ikaw sad mubuhat. In this way craftsmanship and beauty of the building kay ma achieve jud....Again it boils down jud through experience and track records and finished projects. Sa pagkakarun bro, di paka ka-feel kaayo anang urge to build on what you design kay bagohay pa pud ka na architect....soon you will realize that its good to experience what u draw is what you see in actual.

The Court of Appeals has decided in favor of Civil Engineers in its legal battle with the Architects regarding our rights under RA 544 otherwise know as the Civil Engineering Law. Below is a quote of the dis-positive portion of the Court of Appeals decision dated 05 January 2012.

"WHEREFORE, in view of all the foregoing, the appeal is
... hereby GRANTED. The appealed Decision, dated January 29,
2008 is hereby REVERSED and SET ASIDE and a new one
entered as follows:

a) Sections 302.3 and 4 of the Revised Implementing Rules
and Regulations of the National Building Code are hereby
declared null and void for being contrary to Republic Act 544 and
PD 1096 insofar as they prevent civil engineers from exercising
their right to prepare, sign and seal plans and designs of buildings
such as Vicinity Map / Location Plan, Site Development Plan,
Perspective, Floor Plans, Elevations, Sections, Reflected Ceiling
Plans and the like;

b) Civil engineers are hereby declared to have the right to
prepare, sign and seal plans and specifications enumerated in
Section 302.4 of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations
of the National Building Code for submission to Building Officials
as provided for under Republic Act No. 544 and Presidential
Decree No. 1096."

nice post architect.

[archannegel]

Nice thread.. i agree that everyone should know the importance of hiring an architect. Sometimes, people think architects just do simple instant drawings and they want projects done right away.. they don't know the entire process of getting those drawings done..

lingaw sad ani.... naa man kaha mo projict bro...........

[ninjaintraining*]

i think this is one of the reasons
why dili m.bloom ang architecture sa pinas

we need architects to make architecture
it cant just be anybody

Don't be confuse guys. If you're planning to build your dream house, let the architect design your house rather than a civil engineer. Architects are perfectly capable in interpreting ideas while integrating them into space planning, creating a functional and well organized interior spaces without sacrificing the aesthetics of the exterior.

Actually you can tell the difference by just looking at the exterior facade of the house whether it was designed by a C.E. or by an Architect.

Nindot ni nga thread. Archi man akong gisugdan og skwela (inspired by my amahan nga CivilEng), sa dihang gi-discourage ko sa akong uncle nga gamay ra iyang kita. Mao tong shift ko og Fine Arts Advertising Major. Wa ra man sad ko nagmahay, kay akong kauban nga architect sa company before, parehas ra man mi og rate, mas lisod pa iyang giagian pagskwela kaysa akoa. Pero nindot unta ang archi kung palambuay jud ni nga career sa Pinas.
