THE RECENT TENDENCY AND PATHWAYS FOR ARCHITECTS TO AVOID ARCHITECTURAL-DISPUTES DUE TO BUILDING DEFECTS

Abstract

By analyzing Architecture-disputes found in architecture journal articles about building defects, there were four types of liability. According to these four types, we made pathways for architects as designers shall see things from different angles, clients shall understand the project and explain to neighbors, designers and supervisors shall coordinate with the project party after design phase and supervisors shall be aware of being the last barrier against building defects.
