AIA Contract Document Numbering System

Welcome to the Black Spectacles Community @nicholas.manalo! We are happy to have you here.

This is an excellent breakdown of the AIA contract docs and how they are structured (and a helpful resource to anyone else who also might be studying for PcM/PjM/CE)! From what I can tell, you have the current list. Types 6 and 9 still appear to be reserved, meaning they are for future use (similar to that of CSI MasterFormat ‘reserved’ divisions).

I wouldn’t worry too much about the nitty gritty of AIA contract docs beyond this overview, as well as the specific docs listed in the ARE 5.0 Guidelines (page 117) - as those are the ones that NCARB most often references on the ARE.

Here are some additional resources if you are interested:

Hope this helps!
