The American Institute of Architects Official Guide to the 2007 AIA Contract Documents

Written by The American Institute of Architects (AIA), this is a comprehensive guide to the AIA contract documents, which include the agreements between architect-owner, and owner-contractor. There are other guides to the AIA contract documents, but this is the only authoritative one written by the AIA itself. The book describes background and history of the documents themselves and explains the documents in depth. It compares the previous documents to the new documents, and guides architects, owners, contractors, and legal professionals in understanding the documents.
