Craig,

Sounds like someone has some "splainin" to do Lucy.

Just because something is done as a design-build project would not somehow
negate the need for a PE.  In fact, just the opposite would hold true.
Design-build implies PE involvement.

In addition, if I was the AHJ, at this point, it is already designed (and
perhaps in for permit and rejected), and now you want to add a PE and come
back with the same design stamped by a PE, I would reject that as well, as
it is obvious the PE just stamped the plans after the fact, and did not do
or supervise the design.

Good luck.

What if it was done by a contractor as a design-build project?  No PE
involved.

Craig,

He has to be a PE.  It is normally the Engineer that is part of the original
design of the project.

I need to know from someone who regularly works in Louisiana what the
submittal procedure is if drawings are produced for an owner from an outside
design firm who is not the installing contractor.

Is a POR required to be a PE?

Where are the qualifications listed for the POR in relation to sprinkler
shop drawings?
