Adjudicators Note

Remember these are the minimum requirements. Some of them overlap. Use your best judgment, a rule of thumb you might use is that there should be adequate paperwork to insure that someone other than the designer would be able to complete the job if something happened to the designer. Evidence of the designer' s research and process always to be encouraged.
