 Building design is the process
of providing all information
necessary for construction of a
building that will meet its owner’s
requirements and also satisfy public
health, welfare, and safety
requirements.
Building
construction
is the process of
assembling
materials to form a
building.

Architects are persons legally

permitted to practice architecture.

Engineers are experts in specific

scientific disciplines and are legally
permitted to design parts of buildings
 In the design of a building,
please be guided by the should be capable of
withstanding the elements and
following principles: normal usage for a period of
time

should be constructed to
serve purposes
should be visually
pleasing
should consume a
minimum of energy

should be constructable
No part of the building
should pose a hazard to the
safety or health

should provide the

degree of shelter
should be kept within
the limit
constructed to minimize
adverse impact on the
environment
