Architect and Engineers Clause Samples
The 'Architect and Engineers' clause defines the roles, responsibilities, and authority of architects and engineers involved in a project. It typically outlines the scope of their services, such as preparing designs, reviewing submittals, and overseeing construction to ensure compliance with plans and specifications. This clause ensures that all parties understand the professional standards and decision-making powers of these key consultants, thereby promoting clear communication and accountability throughout the project.

Landlord shall provide Tenant with all current as-built base Building plans, including structural, plumbing, mechanical and electrical plans, as required by an Approved Architect and the Engineers to the extent in Landlord’s possession or control (and in the event Landlord does not have access to such base Building plans, Landlord shall cause Engineer and Approved Architect to prepare the same, and the costs of the same shall be deducted from the Tenant Improvement Allowance).
