He had agreed to enlarge the contract by agreeing to case the western wall, late in the season, at a cost of £850, on top of a further £650 of extras, all of which he was prepared to do, putting 'the building' before his own needs. He acknowledged and thanked his many assistants, men of "more than ordinary talents" who were "most active and faithful" throughout. He gave special mention to Mr Healey, his assistant clerk; to Mr Kendall, one of the contractors and to Ralph Brough, the "clever setter of masonry and inventor of machinery".
However it was not in Joseph's nature to be a slavish copier of the designs of others; an ardent student who made good use of his early training in Halifax with John Oates, he also took every opportunity to demonstrate his own originality, to introduce new construction techniques where necessary, and quite often to combine more than one style when he felt inspired so to do. On this occasion, despite the limited space and the restrictive budget, he somehow managed to come up with his own version of the Temple of Jupitor Stator in the Forum in Rome,4 to a 21 scale of about 75% of the original' - and still to meet the requirements of the Commissioners of the Birmingham Street Act.
He also had a scheme for delaying wages, by paying three-fourths as work proceeded. The Commissioners had not been convinced and had insisted upon enforcing a bond, to make "assurance double sure", and crossed through the original payment clauses. They had told Joseph and Edward that they were not satisfied with the three names put forward by the contractors as sureties and had said that they, the architects, must "join also in bond for the contractors", with payment being two-thirds of the work done and materials supplied in advance with the remaining third three months after completion.
