All drawings pertain to building projects completed at UBC, with only a couple of exceptions at the end of this section. Most of the drawings in this accession are working drawings, with some preliminary and perspective drawings appearing in the files. In addition, there are some working drawings for several unbuilt UBC projects. The same building sub-contractors were used consistently throughout TBP&P's corporate life: D.W. Thomson, Mechanical Engineering; Simpson & MacGregor, Electrical Engineering; O. Safir, Structural engineering. In the 1970s, this group became the "Partners" when the corporate title changed for the last time [see: Administrative History in the full file list]. Some projects between 1923 and 1974 were commissioned by the federal or provincial government rather than the university.
The subseries consists of minutes of committee meetings and correspondence; correspondence between the architectural firm and construction companies, engineers and contractors, laboratories for inspecting and testing buildings and the Provincial Government in Victoria; and forms of tender, reports, memoranda, quotations, agreements, specifications, certificates of insurance and schedules of hardware. There are also original architectural drawings included in the files, most of which are white prints, blueprints and diazos sent to Thompson, Berwick, Pratt & Partners by engineers. It is arranged into the tertiary series UBC Buildings, Federal Government Buildings at UBC, Educational and Commercial Buildings, and UBC Campus Development.
