Well, the house is not really being experimented on. Whoever does that is acting grossly negligently. Regarding building materials, substances, etc. that come onto the market, the planner naturally has to inform themselves very thoroughly and not just install them without consideration. Above all, they must also inform the client about it. Building is also a matter of trust to some extent, and if I don’t trust my counterpart (whether GC or architect), then that’s it...
You are absolutely right, that’s how it should be.
But how does it look in the hectic everyday life, in which even an architect (quite rightly) wants to earn their money? Then people often tend to trust the manufacturer and gather the first real experience with a new material precisely on the construction whose client did not object but trusted ;)
Yes, correct. However, their definition in legal practice is apparently not so trivial that the client could quickly get their rights and money—until then, only they pay. The outcome in any case: uncertain :(
...oh yes, because he is liable for his planning errors :mad:
