APPRACN02 - Professional Practice 2: Administering the Regular Service of the Architects National University – Manila College of Architecture Introduction to the Architectural Profession During the Spanish colonial period, there was no formal schools of architecture nor the title of architect. At this time, the equivalent of an architect would be called a “Maestro de Obra” or Master Builder.

Early Pioneers As Maestro De Obras  Julio Hernandez (1891)  Isidro Medina (1894)  Arcadio Arellano (1894)  Juan Carreon (1896) First Filipino Architect Felix Roxas y Arroyo is considered as the first Filipino Architect. He studied under the maestros in Spain and London. In January 1858, Felix’s request to take the Maestro de Obras y Director de Caminos Vecinales (Director of Neighborhood Roads) was granted and he took it in the Escuela Especial de Arquitectura. He was later appointed as Municipal Architect of Manila in 1877. His notable works are the Sto. Domingo Church and Ayuntamiendo de Manila in Intramuros. Notable Persons  Tomas Mapua was given the first ever license for an Architect.  Carlos Barreto and Antonio Toledo followed as no. 2 and no. 3, respectively.  Harold Keyes (PAS Co-founder) led architects in the US-appointed civilian group during WWII.  Andres Luna de San Pedro wins the famous “Crystal Arcade” award in 1950  Carlos da Silva was awarded by the American Institute of Architects as an honorary member in 1954. @mjrf2024 Brief Historical Summary 1902 - Academia de Arquitectura Y Agremensura De Filipinas (AAAF) 1903 - Academia de Arquitectura, Ingeneieria y Agremensura de Filipinas (AIAAF) 1933 – The organization of Architects was transformed into the Philippine Architects Society (PAS) 1947 – The League of Philippine Architects was formed by former members of the Philippine Institute of Architects 1957 – The Philippine Institute of Architects was admitted into the Internationale des Architects or the UIA 1958 – The Association of Philippine Government Architects or APGA was formed 1965 – the three main groups, the PIA, LPA and APGA, approved the Architect’s National Code 1971 – In preparing for the 50th year anniversary of the profession, in 1971, moves to unify the profession were started. 1973 – Formal negotiations were made to unite the three groups.

The Architect’s National Code Why is there a need for regulation of professions?  Generally, all professionals have the freedom to practice their chosen field, with little to no hindrance from government and non-governmental bodies.  However, there is a need to regulate such practices in order to:  1. Ensure competencies of members  2. Protect the public/end users  3. Maintain a measurable standard of practice  4. Accountability and Grievance Procedures  5. Promote reliable services Two Divisions of the Code 1. Code of Ethical Conduct @mjrf2024  a) This is the set of guidelines and principles designed to help professionals conduct their business with integrity, honesty, and accountability. It outlines the ethical standards and expectations for behavior within a specific profession or organization. b) The code of ethics outlines guiding principles and the accountability of professionals and how conflicts can be resolved in order to maintain trust and confidence in the professionals and maintain the reputation of the profession. 2. Standards of Professional Practice a) There was a need to classify the services of Architects since there was already a wide array available of services to clients. b) The purpose of the outlining of the services is also for both the Architect and the client: a. For the Client – to know about: b. Scope of services c. Responsibility of the Architect d. Responsibility of the Clients c) For the Architect – to have an easy reference to the services that can be conducted Classification of Services under UAP pre-2010 1.
