RELATED READING A guide to letter contracts: for very small projects, surveys and reports Roland Phillips A guide to letter contracts presents, for the first time, a safe way to word a letter contract for very small projects. At its heart are two annotated model letters, one for a business client and the other for a domestic client. Expressed in plain English, the models include provisions that may be modified to suit project requirements. The whole is supported by four worked examples demonstrating how the models may be adapted in practice. A guide to letter contracts is an essential for architects and other consultants offering design services.

Providing a systematic operational framework that can be applied to any building type or procurement method, its comprehensive scope is logically laid out along the RIBA s Outline Plan of Work 2007. In all, the Architect s Job Book s straightforward, no-nonsense coverage is invaluable and will form the cornerstone of an office quality management system, making it essential reading for anyone in architectural practice or, indeed, for students undertaking their Part 3 examinations.
