take other appropriate action upon the Contractor’s submittals such as Shop Drawings, Product Data and Samples, to
check for conformance with the Contract Documents and Architect’s performance specifications. Review of such

responsibility. The Architect’s review shall not constitute approval of safety precautions or, unless otherwise
specifically stated by the Architect, of any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures
(unless such means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures were directed or specified by Architect). The
Architect’s approval of a specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component.

Architect is aware of or reasonably should be aware of.

§ 2.6.4.3 If the Contract Documents specifically require the Contractor to provide professional design services or
certifications by a design professional related to systems, materials or equipment, the Architect shall specify the

shop Drawings and other submittals related to the Work designed or certified by the design professional retained by
the Contractor that bear such professional’s seal and signature when submitted to the Architect.

§ 2.6.4.4 Subject to the provisions of Section 3.3, the Architect shall review and respond to requests for information
about the Contract Documents. The Architect shall set forth in the Contract Documents the requirements for requests
for information. Requests for information shall include, at a minimum, a detailed written statement that indicates the
specific Drawings or Specifications in need of clarification and the nature of the clarification requested. The
Architect’s response to such requests shall be made in writing within any time limits agreed upon, or otherwise with
reasonable promptness. If appropriate, the Architect shall prepare and issue supplemental Drawings and
Specifications in response to requests for information.

§ 2.6.4.5 The Architect shall maintain a record of submittals and copies of submittals supplied by the Contractor in
accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, and shall also maintain a record of the time of
submission and the time of Architect’s response.
