An architect creates the overall aesthetics and look of the buildings and other

structures, but the design of a building involves far more than its appearance.
Buildings also must be functional, safe and economical and must suit the needs of
the people who use them. Architect who have three section of roles is required to
design a concept of product that emphasis on safety guidelines either for the public
or the during construction phase.
The first section which is design role is where when a person or business wants a
building to be designed and built there are many considerations to be made. The
architect must meet with the client for an initial consultation. This consultation
helps the architect determine the client's structural needs, such as what type of
structure it is, how many people it must house and the main function of the
building. In addition to discussing the building requirements and objectives with the
client, the architect must also discuss the client's budget. A client's budget will have
a direct impact on how closely the architect is able to carry out the client's ideas
and, as a result, the architect may use his expertise to make alternate suggestions
that are more in line with the budget. In addition, an architect cannot build a design
that may bring harm to the consumer because that will breach the trust there is for
an architect therefore safety measures must be kept in mind too.
The documentation phase is where the architect is more focused on the
construction site as the design is directed to the expertise on the site. Architectural
plans are detailed drawings of a structure that show what the building will look like,
in great detail. In addition to the plans for the exterior of the building, the architect
also creates plans for air conditioning systems, communication systems and
landscaping. If requested, the architect will include a list of building materials and
furnishings for the interior of the structure. When the architect draws up the plans,
he must take into consideration all building codes and regulations, fire safety codes
and accessibility for disabled individuals.
During construction phase, an architect though are not required to do on hands
work should be prepared to do any changes to the design if there is an error that
occur during construction. This is where the architect may participate in the site
visiting and produce a cost analysis as part of the critical decision stage if so to say
an error occurs. As many there is to an architect responsibilities such as being able
to stay in the course line for a long time, good in strategizing and have good
communications skill, all of the traits should stay in the safety and health
guidelines.
Architects acknowledges and accepts its statutory responsibility under the terms of
the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, for securing the Health, Safety and Welfare
of all its employees and any other person why may be affected by our work
operations. If the architect belongs to a company, its company will provide
adequate and sufficient money, time and any other resources as necessary to
ensure that its meets its Health and Safety responsibilities, paying particular

attention to the provision and maintenance of all equipment, adequate facilities,

handling, storage and transportation. Besides that, the company needs also fulfill
the provision of sufficient information, training and supervision to enable all the
company's employees to avoid hazardous situations and contribute positively to
their own health and safety at work. Creating a healthy working environment also a
must in the safety and health guidelines for an architect for this will encourage
employees to have great teamwork and work as a unit in safety measure. The
inclusion of health and safety into the planning, organization, controlling,
monitoring and review arrangements in its management systems not only will save
lives but smooth out the work process as the company is involved before and after
the design is out. Lastly, the use of suitable and sufficient risk assessment
techniques to assess the health and safety risks applicable to employees and others
who may be affected by the companys work activities is also a priority to the
company. A Health, Safety and Environmental Policy is unlikely to be successful
unless it actively involves the people who work within the company therefore it is
important that everyone takes the issue of safety and health as a serious matter
including the architect.
