The architect cannot certify that the drawings show the construction as it was built. These documents are not "as built" documents. I have asked our E&O insurance company to weigh in, as this could directly impact our insurance coverage. If we end up certifying the consultants' drawings too, what kind of agreement should be in place between us? The project's drawings were produced with AutoCAD.Īgree that - ideally - the consultants should each be responsible for verifying and certifying that construction reasonably replicates their design.

Hi Tara, thanks very much for your response, and your understanding of the situation - a tough case, indeed. Kind regards, Tara Imani, AIA, NCIDQ, ASID, CSI Registered Architect + Interior Designer Tara Imani Designs, LLC 10333 Richmond Avenue, Suite 170 Houston, TX 77042 Work/Mobile Ph: 83 Original Message. As-built drawings usually include location of lights and plumbing fixtures- but doesn't guarantee that they are in compliance with certain codes, does it? You might also bring in a Consultant to certify the other Consultants' work. You might also refer to your state's practice act.

It's good that you're checking with your E & O insurance (I assume this is your Professional Liability Insurance). I have dealt with sticky situations but not this particular type. Is there any precedence for this? You might even contact the licensing board in your state licensing board and ask them what they recommend. Hi Dennis, I would think that you cannot or should not 'certify' the Consultant's drawings.

The project was funded by the state, so a state agency reviewed and approved the design before it was submitted for building permit review.

I look forward to reading others' more informed advice. This is one tough case- one for the books (and CSI, ARE test questions). Is this drawn on Revit? Is there a BIM model. I would think each SMEP needs to produce their own as-builts. Subject: Architects asked to produce and certify as-built drawings

Original Message Original Message- We were asked to design an ADA upgrade for a large affordable housing complex. The owners/managers/contractors are chafing at the delay, saying to "just do it", because there's almost no liability. Besides "AS-BUILT DRAWING", what verbiage should be included in the stamp? Does the architect stamp and certify all drawings, with written approval of the consultants, or must each consultant produce their own as-built drawings? Our team includes civil and MEP engineering.

We slammed on the brakes, and have asked for full compliance with the design before producing as-built drawings.

We visited the site and discovered significant discrepancies between the approved design, and what was actually built. They will provide the 8609's and regulatory agreement once they sign off on our package". The contractors/owners have asked us to provide "As-Built Plans and Specs certified by the architect as a part of the place in service package, which shows the "State housing finance and development corp" that we have done everything we proposed under our application to them. The construction was done by a different division of the same company that owns and manages the housing complex. We were asked to design an ADA upgrade for a large affordable housing complex.
