Architect: Say no more.

 @smlx4 Architect specified width in inches, metal shop thought it was cm, nobody would answer the builder's call. Just a guess.   @smlx4 It’s probably unfinished. Next step is to add the top panel to each step. @smlx4 That would cause 2 years of head-scratching and report writing before rejection from the UK building regulations people. Well, it would, if the owner actually told them about it (unless it was a new build). An indemnity when selling a house is about 20 times cheaper than obtaining building regulations approval. And those indemnities are almost never required, anyway.   @smlx4 @red_rooster @smlx4 out of curiosity (also living in germany): about 1., I have heard a similar argumentation regarding our office design, but lets say I hire an architect for my personal home, why would I be required to use that as is, no matter the copyright? Wouldnt I hire them for a design that is then in my property to use as I see fit, even change? @brahms @smlx4 @red_rooster crazy stuff! Thanks for sharing! Our mentioned office did not have racks planned for towels in the kitchen. So my colleagues apparently bought super cheap plastic ones in spite 🤣 I think they are still in use @brahms To #all  "I live in a country so backward that we haven't invented sliced bread. Do you have something I can fling loaves at?"  @smlx4 saw this a few years ago – it's a bit misleading. Shown is merely the metal undercarriage upon which the final big wide wooden treads of the stairs are attached. The final pic is out there somewhere and is fine. @bransonturner @smlx4 aha! Bingo. Could still use a proper hand rail for safety though.   @smlx4 Not an expert but I feel I'd be more likely to break my face than my legs on those "stairs"   @mloxton It’s difficult to determine if this staircase is from a real location or a digitally created/rendered image just from looking at it. The design appears plausible in terms of modern architectural trends, but whether it’s functional or exists in a real space would depend whether the sources found on the net are reliable.    |
