The Documents shall include:
(2) Engineers shall legibly indicate their name and business address on Engineering Documents. Engineering Documents which are issued for preliminary or conceptual use shall clearly note the intended purpose of such Documents.
(3) When elements of the project are shown on an Engineering Document only for information or clarification and the Engineer does not intend to accept responsibility for the elements, the engineer shall clearly note on the Documents the extent of his responsibility.
(4) Engineering Documents shall be legible and clearly define and delineate the work in the project. They must also comply with the requirements of Chapter 61G15-23, F.A.C., Seals.
(5) Engineers shall clearly note on any preliminary Engineering Documents that such Documents are not in final form, but are being transmitted to the AHJ to receive agency reviews, comments and interpretations. The Documents may subsequently be revised by the engineer to reflect resolution of issues with the AHJ prior to final action by the AHJ. Changes, revisions and modifications to a project may prompt additional Document submittal for AHJ approval action on the same project.
