What are AIA Best
Practices?
AIA Best Practices represent the collective
wisdom of AIA members. They are a compendium of the practical
knowledge acquired by AIA members in the real world of architecture
practice—knowledge gained from experience, immediately
applicable to a task at hand. To browse all AIA Best Practices, go
to www.aia.org/library_default and click
on "Best Practices" in the menu on the left or go directly to www.aia.org/bestpractices.

The resources in the AIA Archives richly
document the development of the architectural profession in the
United States. Beginning with the minutes of the first meeting of
the American Institute of Architects on February 23, 1857, the AIA
Archives protects and preserves the heritage of all
architects.

Sponsored by the AIA Large Firm Roundtable
(LFRT) and the Educator/Practitioner Net (EPN), the AIA Case Studies Initiative was launched
in September 2001 to produce an online database of case
studies.
The intent of this collaborative effort is to develop a new body of
knowledge regarding the practice of architecture through rigorous
preparation of architectural case studies on a variety of project
types. The information developed is available to students, faculty,
interns, practicing architects, and the public to better inform all
of these constituencies. The goal is to provide an opportunity for
learning -- both for students and practitioner -- in the context of
architectural practice.
The deadline for submission of case studies is August 1 of each
year. For additional information, see the Case Studies Development
Checklist and Submission Guidelines (PDF/33pgs/171k) at www.aia.org/ed_casestudies_guidelines.
