Chamber of Engineers - registration in the list of engineers authorized to submit building documents
Service Description
The Thuringian Chamber of Engineers, as a public corporation, has essential duties to protect the professional interests of engineers and at the same time to maintain the legally required lists or directories, including the list of engineers authorized to submit building documents, in the public interest (§ 21 para. 3 no. 2 ThürAIKG).
The registration in the list of engineers authorized to submit building documents at the Chamber of Engineers Thuringia causes on the one hand the compulsory membership as a chamber member of the Chamber of Engineers Thuringia and on the other hand the authorization to sign building documents for the construction and modification of buildings as draft version and to submit them to building authorities.
According to the legal requirements of § 64 para. 2 and 3 ThürAIKG, the registration in the list of engineers authorized to submit building documents and the associated acquisition of the authorization to submit building documents requires a profession-qualifying educational degree as well as the exercise of a practical activity in a field of civil engineering including structural engineering.
Civil engineers in this sense are only those graduates of universities and technical colleges who have been taught essential subjects such as structural analysis, construction mechanics, building materials science, building physics, structural engineering, hydraulic engineering, etc. as part of their studies in civil engineering.
With the successful registration in the list of engineers authorized to submit building documents, it is confirmed at the same time that the registered person has the professional qualification required by law as well as the necessary professional experience in the design planning of buildings and, as a member of the chamber, is subject to the professional law of engineers including its control by the Chamber of Engineers of Thuringia.
