Architecture 645 is a graduate level Architectural Practice in Canada course explores and examines both the theoretical and practical aspects of Canadian architectural practice. The various stakeholders involved in the design and construction of buildings (such as builders, Authorities Having Jurisdiction, consultants, owners, and clients) and their relationship to the architect are explored. The course includes the current context in which architects practice and the laws and regulations that govern their practice in Canada. During and after the completion of this course I am able to achieve the following objectives: - Explain the general purpose and content of the Architects Act and its regulations of the jurisdiction in which the student works; - Apply Codes of Ethics in everyday practice; - Express a personal conviction on the role of the architect in society; - Nurture appropriate professional relationships and administer the contractual role of the architect with others in the design and construction industry - Apply building codes, standards and other regulations to the design and construction of buildings - Know how architectural practices may be organized and follow the regulations governing the formation of a practice - Recognize potential new leadership roles for architects.
