Dear SEFIans I also do not see any harm in signing structural drawings irrespective of whether Architect signs his drawings or not. It may be prudent to put in one or more drawings (in the notes column) a sentence saying "the structural details are worked out as per the architect's inputs" and preserve the drawings issued by the architect safely. kalgal

On a project recently I was asked to sign my structural drawings by the architect. I insited that he first gives me a signed copy of the architectural drawings as “good for construction”. He immediately went on the defensive asking why I would need them. I told him it would stand to reason that the building bye-laws was his responsibility and structural stability was mine. He has no longer insited I give signed drawings (for the time being at least).
One obvious reason would be the building does not comply with bye-laws—but I doubt that this is the cause in this case. Could there be another reason and could the structural community benefit from that knowledge? (insecurity of liability?)
