Cannot sign. It is illegal to submit as-built drawings to the owner directly if the project has not commissioned a qualified entity to prepare the construction drawings. This may lead to construction quality issues and could result in financial losses for the owners. Therefore, it is necessary to comply with relevant laws and regulations, find a qualified entity to prepare the construction drawings and obtain approval before proceeding with construction and submitting the as-built drawings. .

Since the projects don’t even have construction drawings prepared by a legitimate design institute, how can there be a completion inspection? If something goes wrong, whose fault is it? The owner is really generous!

This kind of thing is extremely dangerous; it’s similar to drug trafficking. Don’t ruin yourself over such petty gains for the sake of a relationship

Construction is carried out first, and the design drawings are created later based on the actual situation; it’s likely that no design firm will be willing to create such drawings as they wouldn’t meet the requirements. This is how many small projects are handled these days

Having watched too many TV dramas, I think I’m a director.

I can tell you that for a project worth over 10 million, we didn’t receive the design drawings until the day before the hydraulic testing – can you believe that?

Believe. Even if it’s a plain drawing used for construction, I believe it was produced by a design firm with the necessary design qualifications; otherwise, you can’t take such a risk.

No, I copied from others; I made changes while working, and it took hundreds of thousands in redo work

This year, we undertook an expansion project for an ammonia plant, but it turned out to be a failure. It involves major hazard sources, and there was no proper design – the approach used was simply copying that of the previous project (which was completed and put into operation about 12 years ago). Due to differences in regulations and standards, attempts were made to take shortcuts, trying to start operations first and handle the necessary procedures later. Now, it’s not possible to get approval for such projects, nor have the required simultaneous construction, safety assessments, etc. been carried out. It’s a case of those who know nothing being fearless. Now, efforts are being made to find a Class A petrochemical design institute to prepare the designs, but when they arrive on site, they reject the proposal outright. Just thinking about going to the Emergency Management Bureau makes one tremble with fear:dizzy:
