During construction, electrical sub notices code violation error in elec engineers drawings. Whose responsible for any costs associated with the error?
IMO the architect is directly responsible to the owner for those kind of costs, however the Elec Engineer is responsible to the architect. These questions are worded so generic that determining whether the architect or elec eng is responsible is not clear. It doesn't specify whom the costs are owed to. But even if it did, since the elec eng is only contracted to the architect, the responsibility would be on the architect, right? Answer says "elec engineer" is responsible, which in the end, I get it,he would repay the architect. But isn't the architect directly responsible as we'll?
How do we know what answer they really want though?
