CDM answers… When should a principal designer be appointed? The principal designer should be appointed by the client as early as possible in the design process, and where practicable, at the concept stage of the project. #safetyaudit #constructionindustry #cdm

Making the leap from residential to multi-family truss design – what a journey. I'm curious about the key differences in skill sets and challenges between these two worlds. How does the transition from designing for single-family homes to multi-unit buildings impact your approach to: * Load calculations and analysis? * Software utilization and complexity? * Collaboration with architects and engineers? * Code requirements and compliance? Share your experiences and insights! Let's learn from each other. #trussdesign #structuralengineering #residentialdesign #multifamily #construction #engineeringlife

So many times, I get emails from architects asking how we at Disruptive Designs take care of their data and intellectual property.✨ I know most architects are hesitant to reach out and concerned about their privacy. Therefore, I want to shed some light on our process of work for #Architects #DesignManagers, and #Interiordesigners to protect their data and privacy: 👉 We collaborate as a third party with our clients and sign a comprehensive agreement to ensure data protection and confidentiality. 👉 During discussions with new clients, we only share our work via screen sharing to maintain security and prevent unauthorized access. 👉 We emphasize strong confidentiality agreements to protect our clients' intellectual property and maintain their trust. That's how we're collaborating and working with Principal Architects, Design Managers, and Interior Designers. If you're looking for professionals to streamline your business processes, feel free to drop me a message. Let's create something amazing together! 🙌 #architectsaia #californiaarchitects #ncarb #Texasarchitects #california #CA

CIAT have launched their new PD Register for both HRB's and Non-HRB's and I'm still sat here wondering why it exists for the latter. Firstly, I get it for HRB's. High Risk Buildings. The landscape has changed following Grenfell and we have to move with it. It's reasonable to expect professional working on them to demonstrate a suitable level of competence. Non-HRB's though, e.g. Mr/Mrs Smith's Kitchen Extension, are bread and butter projects for an Architectural Technologist and all this register does is suggest that being Chartered isn't enough to consider yourself competent despite all the competency requirements we went through to get Chartered in the first place. CIAT have implemented a two-tier (technically three-tier) Chartership scheme. What does base Chartership now offer other than access to the PD Register? I also don't understand what this register does? Is it a safety net? If you're being hauled over the coals for a project being questioned, will be it your heat shield to stop you getting burnt? Or is it closer to an MOT where you have demonstrated your competence (again) to get on the register but if something happens, you'll have to demonstrate you're competent in the situation you're being questioned on by the BSR. In which case, the register does nothing. You can't just point to it and say, "That's my name there. I'm covered." I suspect it's closer to the latter analogy. Essentially, I don't work on any HRB jobs generally. What is this register giving me, except another direct debit? Other than the 10 people already on the Non-HRB register - that was quick given it only launched today - are you registering for it? I appreciate this is me coming across as cynical - and for confirmation, I fully support the need for accountability and demonstration of competence in this industry - but I haven't spoken to a single AT recently who has been positive about this particular mechanism of demonstrating it.

Are you aware of the RIBA Principal Designer Register? Currently 28 Principal Designers who have been assessed for competencies in both CDM.& BSA. Beware of the BSA 'advisor' who doesn't meet the required competencies . There are an increasing number of opportunists who are misleading clients, taking a fee and providing misinformation, leaving you & your client at risk of serious sanctions. Don't take the risk. Check out the register for direct and credible support & guidance. #buildingsafetyact #principaldesignerBSA #bewarethecarpetbaggers

Every property developer must consider quality CGI. In a field full of competition, low quality renders will not fully capture the essence of the design, leading to underwhelming response to your offer. #property #design #architecture #architects #propertydeveloper #developer #realtor #realestate #3dsmax #coronarender #archviz #cgi #3d #3drender #3dvisualisation
