There was a proposed condominium in Tacloban called "Sunrise Condominium." One MAJOR design flaw I noticed in the floor plan is the absence of an enclosed fire exit stairs, not to mention other things. If a fire breaks out in the 2nd floor, for example, the occupants in the upper floors will be trapped, except that the only way out is thru the windows. You cannot use an elevator in case of fire. This is a 7 story building and I don't think the City has modern fire equipment for rescue of people in tall buildings. This is one big POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD that I hope the City Building Offical will not give them a building permit unless this is addressed. I wonder who designed this building?


I hope you are not directing your criticism or blaming the civil engineers again..... as you did in the other thread.... because I am sure this particular building was designed by your fellow inexperienced architects. I can see civil engineers designing one-family or two-family residential buildings but not multi-story condo buildings.

Did I mention something about civil engineers designing this building or you're just picking on me again? It would probably been worse if it was a civil engineer? :angry05: I don't care who designed this building. I am just voicing out my concern regardless. Knock it off bro!

I think there is a way to discuss things in a 'civilized' manner. In a society, people should work with each other for the common good. Else, we'd be back to the dark ages of civilization where the prosefull and eloquent and not necessarily right hold the peoples' mind.

I think the discussion is healthy though. Keep it up people. Just remember to keeps eggs/egos in check


Bankai!

I don't know how you define "civilized" but there is nothing uncivilized in the discussion. Expressing different opinions doesn't make the discussion barbaric if that's what you are implying.

Why don't you join the discussion on the subject and show us the right way..... the "civilized" way.

I much as i want to but i simply have nothing to contribute to it...Just saying la nga pwedi man ada kta mag uru-istorya nga magtugnaw it ulo ngan waray pagkaburubiringkil. I think in that manner, solutions can be arrived at more easily...
