That’s even a joke between architects. My brother in law regularly rants about some other architects and how they wouldn’t be able to calculate a heating solution for a house if their life depended on it and the house were a black cube in interstellar space.
There’s probably a reason why building plans for houses need to be signed off by a state approved structural engineer during the build application process.
As civil engineers we used to joke that architects are mostly artists and wouldn’t know what they are doing.
There is some brilliant architects that do know their physics for building design and construction, but they seem to be far and few in between.
