Your company has been awarded a new contract for geotechnical recommendations for the foundation of a proposed building. At the end of the project, the client requires for the recommendations to be stamped by a licensed professional engineer (PE). Under which scenarios are you legally allowed to provide the client with stamped engineering recommendations? Select all that apply.
You are PE licensed and your specialty is in something else other than building foundations. You partner up with a colleague, who is an expert in building foundations but whose licensure is currently expired, to write the building foundation recommendations. You stamp his recommendations because you know he is an expert in the field, although you are not. You trust his judgment and you two work for the same company.
You are highly knowledgeable in the topic of building foundations and you are licensed. You stamp your own recommendations.
You are PE licensed and your specialty is in something else other than building foundations. You wrote the building foundation recommendations and a colleague who is licensed and an expert in building foundations reviewed your work. You stamped the building foundation recommendations since the project was assigned to you and the recommendations were reviewed by a licensed expert.
You are the manager of the firm and you are currently too busy to write the engineering recommendations. You tell your subordinates to write the engineering recommendations. You are knowledgeable in building foundations. You review the recommendations written by your employees. As a licensed PE, you approve and then stamp the engineering documents.
