APAREJADOR

that´s the old and/or conventional job title of the today's constructional engineer and means translated "building master". The today's designation in spanish is "ARQUITECTO TÉCNICO". See also definition ' APAREJADOR ' under "building code law".
His tasks?
The field of the APAREJADORS covers many special fields and/or specialist areas. The local connection, like executing construction of hotels, apartmenthouses, single- and multi family houses, his activity can be compared earliest with the tasks of a official ordered construction supervisor and test engineer. Many times he also execute the direction of the project. The direction of the project however is a seperate scope of functions and differs from the tasks of the APAREJADORS. It is offered by  seperatly within the frame of it´s entire activities. Organizational and for the building owner ideally, if both ranges are in "one hand".
