Architecture and Construction
Notes:
This method is my own method in showing the Client where there money goes, I just breakdown the elements to show that each allied profession has its own fees being paid and it does not mean that the preparation of drawings, design analysis as separated from signing and sealing is the same can be offered separately at the option of the Client, the answer is no, there is nothing an option for the services between the design analysis, preparation of drawings and the signing and sealing, all of which are encompassing with each other as architects and engineers has no scope of services of signing and sealing described in their own laws. The signing and sealing can only be within the realm of the architects and engineers own project and does not include to offer it separately for a fee to the works of a non-registered persons.
The words "Under the professional charge and supervision is not to include to sign and seal the works of a non-registered person who are not employed or not working under architects personal charge and supervision to work for his own project i.e., architects employees, outsource CAD Operators and the like. Otherwise, by offering signing and sealing separately to a non-registered persons, the allied professionals is aiding or abetting such non-registered persons in the illegal practice of the profession and the professional is engage also in a mal-practice of his profession. (See Sec. 7.9 of the Architects 2006 Code of Ethics).
