Contractor's role in construction
Published:
2 December 2011
The function of the architect administering a contract can be gleaned from the building contract and also from the architect's conditions of engagement.
The architect must make inspections sufficient to determine whether the works are generally in accord with the contract documents. The architect must say if what the contractor has done complies with the contract. It is not the architect's duty to tell the contractor how to do the work so that it will comply.
