Stamping drawings as PA, not Partner
I’m a recently licensed architect in the US, considering a PA role with a new employer. So far, only Owners or Partners have stamped drawings where I have worked, but a company I’ve interviewed with mentioned that their PA’s stamp drawings “with the full backing of the company.” Since this is new territory for me, what kinds of questions should I ask and what should I be aware of regarding liability for my work? This is somewhat embarrassing to have to ask, considering I should know these things by now. I take pride in my work and understand the idea of taking responsibility for it as the architect performing the work, but I’m unsure how to proceed since the tendency seems to be only owners or management level stamping documents.
Thanks in advance!
