An architect or a landscape architect is not liable for the safety of persons or property on or
about a construction project site, or for the construction techniques, procedures, sequences and
schedules or for the conduct, action, errors, or omissions of any construction contractor,
subcontractor, or material supplier, their agents or their employees, unless the architect or
landscape architect assumes responsibility therefor by contract or by the architect's or
landscape architect's actual conduct. This section does not relieve an architect or a landscape
architect from liability from the architect's or landscape architect's negligence, whether in the
architect's or landscape architect's design work or otherwise.
