Not necessarily. Even though it is a public contract, the contract still may require the Architect to carry more insurance than the minimum in CA. In the end, I would assume the minimum insurance is required, unless the contract between A & O requires more insurance.hnQ_9999 wrote:I would like to be confirmed that if an architect enters a public project, chances are they had their own contract pre-written and tailored, then both

Yes. Assuming the A & C are using the C401. You may want to study the C401, C141 is old.hnQ_9999 wrote:If architect enters a contract using AIA201, then both architect and engineer (who uses C141) would need 4 ?
If I understand you correctly you are asking what to do if the CSE question is vague. Here is what I would do: If the question on the exam does not make any mention of what contract the A & O are using, then I would assume the Arch is only required to have the minimum Automotive and Worker's Comp. insurance. Now... if the question is REALLY vague and doesn't even mention if you have employees or not, and if one of the answers is simply "a. Automotive", (or it is a "select all that apply" type question) then you may have to pick just "a." I hope to heck this exam is not that bad. Even the ARE was not that bad. At that point I would hope the question would give some clue, like "You are an Architect designing a new football stadium...." Then I think you can safely assume that the Architect will have a team of employees working for him/her. Thus both Auto and Workers Comp. is required. I have not taken the exam yet and you are starting to worry me!hnQ_9999 wrote:This one is tricky and easy to get caught by CSE-normally absent of well status quo-questions (=sloppy, IMHO).
