Compare the decision of the Court of Appeals with the initial ruling made by the Manila Regional Trial Court Branch 22 that validated the questioned provisions, specifically paragraphs 3 and 4 of Section 302 of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Presidential Decree 1096, otherwise known as the National Building Code of the Philippines.

Architecture graduate who spent 5 years and two years training without licensed are not allowed to design, but Civil engineers who have no design subjects at all can build design and sign architectural plans. Architecture is one among the original profession before Christ up to the present and the one and only profession dealing in building construction at that time before. C.E. becomes a recognized profession in 1675.Suddenly C.E. will design and sign architectural plans.
ReplyDeleteMapua Institute of technology was established by late Tomas Mapua, the first filipino registered architect produce the best Civil Engineer in the country
ReplyDeleteWhich comes first, the architectural design or the structural design???, that is the reason why C.E. wants to design structure, they can easily utilized architectural graduates, undergraduates, and even licensed architect because of lack of employment opportunity...
ReplyDeleteAn engineer driving motorcycle was stop by police officer, he asked for his licensed, the police officer said "you are driving motorcycle which is not in your restriction code" the engineer replied, "I'm sorry but that is part of my job and I,m driving motorcycle because I know how to drive. The police officer said I'm sorry the law is the law, your violation is driving motorcycle which is not in your restriction code even if you know how to drive a motorcycle that is not the question.
ReplyDeletein fact many architectural drawings are copied, save, edited using auto-cadd and this is the reason why Civil Engineers easily can say they too knows how to design because architectural drawings made by architects are just edited, copied etc. using draftsman and architectural graduates or even architects under their services such as consultants and developers, the reason why they are insisting in signing architectural plans
ReplyDeleteover lapping in profession especially between medical profession becomes acceptable because of necessity such as emergency cases, but it doesn't mean that they will practice it forever like what is happening in architecture and civil engineering
ReplyDeleteit is not because the engineer knows how to design a house or an architect knows structural, not all architects are good in structural design in the same manner not all engineers are good in artistic architectural design.What matters is they are separated by law according to profession code and ethics and laws governing each profession, they must only, learn to abide by this and everything is over
ReplyDeleteIn reality architecture does not only mean design of a building, you will find it later that you will also learning almost everything in order to execute and produce structure that suit the need of a client, in fact in school you will have to learn engineering in some portion relevant to building construction yet C.E. is another profession who also wants themselves to be recognized.
ReplyDeleteMany architectural drawings are openly seen, distributed, copied, saved, edited, published that any civil engineer can easily claim their own works by using Auto-Cadd, architectural draftsman, graduate of architecture and even licensed architect under their services that's why they are insisting they too can do the work of an architect and all of this are big money if they lost it in court.This is why they are almost dying on insisting that design is also part of their job.
ReplyDeleteCivil Engineers declares that they too can do the work of an Architects and the court approved it base on their claim, they can design and signed an architectural plan. Architecture graduate spent five years of hardship spending sleepless nights in design plus another two years of experienced but under-licensed are prevented by law. What is interesting is that by merely declaring they too can do the job of another profession C.E can have it
ReplyDeleteEngineering Contractors are very insistent and determined to regain that they too can do the work of an architect because they are actually benefiting on this even at the extent of violating the law. I have also many personal experiences that there many instances wherein C.E. are not just taking away design but also their behavior acting as if they are the most and the best and the rest are under his feet.
ReplyDeleteFor thousands of years Architects stand alone without Civil Engineers in building construction which include all structure including, roads and bridges. Their works are testimonies of their skills and expertise up to the present, but in 1675 the introductions of mathematical calculations was introduced and here a new profession was created no other than the so called C.E., so why the late profession sign the much older profession?
ReplyDeleteArchitect Imhotep built the famous pyramid of Egypt is which is older than and before christ appear here on earth and many building follows, the reason why architect are called The Great Builder. There was no recognized profession of Civil Engineers at that time except they the architects, craftsman, artist and generalist when it comes to computations.
ReplyDeleteWhat Civil Engineers are telling is the same as an ordinary people are saying that they too can do the works of an Architect and that is the very ordinary design that don't need architectural planning at all. Works of an Architect is works of professional who spent time and effort for several year including gathering of information, building related technology and many others. However they can show sometimes that their works is much like the works of an architect because they use architectural draftsman and or architectural student who shifted into Civil Engineering or any similar cases.
ReplyDeleteArchitecture is one among the original profession and not a branch of Sciences, but C.E. is a branch of science. Something like subjects are taken out among original profession and develop into another profession aside from it is not in the forefront but comes out late in the history in aid to the original profession because of advancing design and technology and human desire to attain the limit of nature psychological boundary
