Work stages
Every construction project no matter how small or large is based on the client's desire for
change. Sometimes the client already owns a property and would merely like to make some alterations, in other cases, he/she owns a plot of land, which could be developed. In some cases, the architect supports the client in finding a suitable plot for a development.
There is some confusion regarding the services provided by the architect. On the one hand, it is often believed that the architect's fee for a commission covers anything and everything the client desires, provided that it has some relation to The project. On the other hand, and equally erroneously, it is sometimes believed that the architect will prepare a set of plans, but anything else will cost extra. There is some truth in each belief, which is why it is often difficult to explain the architect's services satisfactorily.
In most countries the work of an architect is divided into stages. The stages function as a basis for fees and as a means of separation if several architects are working on different phases of the same project. Whereas the HOAL, the Official Scale of fees for Services by Architects and Engineers in Germany, divides the development process into 9 stages, the RIBA, the Royal Institute of British Architects, divides the building process into 11 stages. however, because the process is continuous and some activities can be accommodated in more than one stage. there is not always a clear separation of stages.
The following table shows the subdivision used by the RIBA in Great Britain and the HOAI for building works in Germany.
