BEIJING, Sept. 5 — Building officials are hoping newly implemented survey and design regulations will improve construction in the province.
”The provincial construction department has been promoting the regulations since they became effective early in June,” Chen Yingsong, deputy director of the Guangdong provincial construction department, said.
”[The regulations] are expected to play a role in improving survey and design quality, boosting resource-saving design and improving management of the building sector in the province.”
The regulations involve making architects legally responsible for their designs, and giving citizens more of a say in landmark projects. Energy-saving design is also promoted in the new rules.
Additionally, companies will be prohibited if they allow unqualified designers to work border=0>
