Career Quest

Architects are responsible for designing and planning of buildings. When the South African Police Service wants to erect a building, architects have the responsibility of designing proposals. Architects firstly establish the South African Police Service’s precise needs and investigate the location of the site and other buildings in the vicinity. The availability and suitability of building material are investigated. Then, they start the preliminary sketches, so that the South African Police Service can get an appropriate idea of what the building will look like. The preliminary sketches have to be approved first before costs are finalized and the final plans are drawn according to scale.
