QUOTE(JohnJon82 @ May 31 2015, 08:49 PM) 2k per day but assigned to employee to do the job. If freelance inspector, only can do a job per day. If PE, can take 10 jobs assign to 10 engineers per day. 2k x 10 - engineer salary? If the job require PE to attend himself, I saw one charging 300sgd per hour. Fiona Chin, please comment you hold the account for your husband's company. That would be running an engineering consultancy and you cannot have an underling do the majority of your work and you sign it off. The code (at least here in Australia) requires that you directly supervise all work done by a non-PE that is going to be signed off by yourself. Direct supervision meaning continued and sustained guidance with the majority of the technical input. I know of quite a few cases where the state government has prosecuted and resulted in really large fines and termination of title. Thus there's a real limit to how many projects you can take on. The judge is usually not impressed if you tell them you somehow managed to directly supervise 10 projects at a time. |

QUOTE(JohnJon82 @ Jun 1 2015, 10:31 AM) How many is many ah? What is the limit ah? How much direct supervision is sufficient ah quantify in terms of % of total hours spent on project? How much % then is consider majority of technical input ah? Most of those are qualitative and subject to each person interpretation right? Some work 9 to 5, Mon to Fri, some passionate one work 8 am to 2 am, Mon to Sun, hard to put an exact limit also. Not like some other law like carry more than how many gram of heroin then life sentence those. As many as the judge thinks. If you want to argue the definition, you better be sure that your personal interpretation is the same as the guy who sits behind that bench with the power to fine you, strip you of your CPEng and in some cases sends you to jail. Arguing reasonable definition most of the time will get the judge/magistrate more pissed at you  |
