In a few resources I saw that architect should note the percentage completed in the field report, and compare that to the continuation sheet for the payment, and some other resources say architect does not need to give a percentage on construction. I am not sure which one is right.

  Hi Yusuf,

  The architect definitely need to know the % complete in order to approve (or not approve!) of the application for payment from the contractor.  In fact we need to keep track of all the trades % of completion - framing, mechanicals, finish stuff.  We could have a large project with one zone is an early phase of completion and another zone with finish work going on.  We look at a schedule of values to make sure the the contractor is not overcharging the client for each division of the work too.  Googling 'schedule of values' may be helpful.

  Keep studying!

  That saves me from some doubts. I know we are supposed to be on top of the construction progress but I must say there are some resources out there making the information confusing and giving out wrong answers. Sometimes your answers here are needed. Thank you!
