Contrôle de l'architecte sur le processus de construction. Le RIAI [Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland] publie les modèles de contrats de construction utilisés pour la quasi-totalité des travaux de construction en Irlande. Les parties au contrat sont le client et l'entrepreneur, l'architecte figurant dans celui-ci en qualité d’administrateur du contrat. C'est donc à lui qu'incombe la responsabilité de l'inspection [...] du site pendant la construction, l'émission d’un certificat de bonne fin, le certificat final de paiement dû à l'entrepreneur et, à la fin de la procédure, un avis sur la conformité réglementaire. 5, record 2, French, - certificat%20final

La mission traditionnelle de l’ingénieur consiste à établir les plans, à se livrer à l’étude de tous les équipements et aménagements [...] au moyen de cahier des charges, de devis descriptifs et de spécifications techniques. Cette mission couvre souvent l’administration du contrat pendant les travaux jusqu’à l’émission du certificat final de paiement. [...] Le certificat final de paiement est émis par le professionnel lorsque ce dernier estime que la demande de paiement de l’entrepreneur est justifiée, c’est-à-dire lorsque l’ouvrage est parachevé. 6, record 2, French, - certificat%20final
