Is there a professional body that oversees the conduct of architects?

I've got a beef.

Thanks

Good luck, and don't expect anything to come of your complaint.

Thanks for this site - very useful ... just checked my cousin who I always thought was a quack - turns out the bugger really is a registered architect... Couldn't also resist checking the registration status of the "Nkandla architect" Minenhle Makhanya... Funny enough... His other name is "Nobleman"

From a reply here, I emailed the "SA Council for the Architectural Profession (SACAP)" and got a reply that the architect is "not registered in our data base."

Question: Is an architect required to be registered with this body?

Question: Is an architect required to be registered with this body?

The answer is on the website you linked to:

Registration was compulsory from the 1st July 2006.Why do I need to register?

According to Section 18 (2) & (3) of the Architectural Profession Act 2000 (Act No 44 of 2000):
A person may not practise in any category unless registered with SACAP;
A person registered in the category of Candidate must perform work in the architectural profession only under the supervision and control of a professional of a category prescribed
(see SACAP Policyr0007 Practical Training and Examination Policy)
Registration in a Professional category thus allows you to practice architecture and submit plans to the municipalities for approval.

Who must register?

Any person providing architectural services of any nature.
According to Section 18(2) of the Architectural Profession Act 2000 (Act 44 of 2000), a person may not practice in any category unless registered with the Council.
According to Section 26(3)(a) a person who is not registered may not perform any kind of work identified for any category of registered persons.

Whats the issue?

You also get a Architect, and then you get a Architect Technologist... The Architect basically has 2 more years of training.

Technologist does not need to be registered to operate, BUT, there are limitations in terms of what they can, and can not do.

I actually spoke to an architect today about renovation plans. Just checked the website and he is not registered!
