The
Architects Act (current)
The Architects Act, introduced in British
Columbia in 1920, is the legislation that governs
the architectural profession throughout the province.
Its underlying purpose is to protect the public interest.
While it is specific to architects and architecture,
it affects everyone including related professions,
government officials, clients and the public.
The act specifies the legal responsibilities for those
who practice architecture, including qualifications,
professional conduct standards, liability, and certificates
of practice. It also establishes the authority and
mandate of the Architectural Institute of British
Columbia, the regulatory body for the profession.
