2The duties of the architect under the JCT Standard Building Contract with Quantities 2016On the JCT, the architect is named under clause 2.4, and has been treated traditionally as the main leader who co trolls the design team. Both the employer and the architect are able o enter into the agreement through the signing of the RIBA’s SFA. This form is able to highlight the different duties which the architect will be able to carry out1. The SFA, covers the full details of the roles of the architect from feasibility study time to the handover of the completed project. As noted, the SFA is able to bring a formal agreement on the duties and roles which the architect will be able to assume from the beginning of a project to its end. At some point, the architect is treated as the designer by some parties such as a contractor2. Section 2.6 is able to differentiate the roles of the architect and those of the designer in a project3. Nevertheless, at some point, the architect will be tasked with specific roles while others he or she can perform and relieve the designer from undertaking them. JCT 05 is able to provide the different specific roles which the architect has to carry out in a project. The following are some of the key duties designated for the architect. 1Uff, John.
