Handbook for New Mexico Building Officials

The Joint Practices Committee has prepared this handbook in the spirit of service to the public by the Board of Examiners for Architects, the Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Professional Surveyors, and the Board of Landscape Architects.

This handbook is intended as a source of basic information and does not attempt to address all of the questions concerning the practices of architecture, engineering, surveying, and landscape architecture.

Periodic updates to this handbook will be made. Updates will also be posted on the Boards’ web sites.
