Do I need an architect if I want to build a house in South Africa?
A professional that is registered with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession must submit the building plans before extending, renovating or building a home.
I am in need of advice. We are currently extending our patio roof and our Architect says he cannot sign the SANS Form until he has a Geotech report and rational assessment report. He is new in the field and I would just like to know if this is % necessary before I pay R10 plus to have this done.
Please contact me so that we can set up a meeting to discuss.
RECENTLY PURCHASED PENTHOUSE IN MORNINGSIDE NEEDS COMPREHENSIVE REDESIGN
2 bedroom unit.
Have previous approved plans. Only made carport extension on patio stoep and small carport at entrance
I already have council approved building plans. But they need to be redrawn according to what is on the ground. So I need measurements, redraw and submission to council.
I am looking a plan/design for my layer chickens. These are free range chickens. The plan must include the following: Secured outside area for scratchings during the day. The floors will be slatted for droppings to go through. There must be an underground area/basement where droppings are collected. This area must accessible for the manure collection. There must be a rear nesting roll out area for egg collection. Many thanks,
Double stores, five bedrooms.
Good day, I am working on a building project and wanted to find out how many 1-bedroom units can be built on land approximately 1 .58 square meters big. This includes parking and enough space to avoid clutter. The building can also be 2 stories high. Also, roughly how much would the entire project cost? The numbers do not have to be perfect; I just need information before hiring another dodgy architect. Thanks and regards, Glaser.
