Each licensed architect shall have a seal, the image of which must contain the name of the architect, the person's license number and the words "Licensed Architect, State of Oklahoma".
All technical submissions prepared by such architect, or under the responsible control of the architect, shall be sealed, signed and dated, which shall mean that the architect was in responsible control over the content of such technical submissions during their preparation and has applied the required professional standard of care.

1. The person may sign or seal those portions of the technical submissions that were prepared by or under the responsible control of persons who are licensed under the State Architectural and Registered Commercial Interior Designers Act if the architect has reviewed and adapted in whole or in part such portions and has either coordinated their preparation or integrated them into the work; and
2. The person may sign or seal those portions of the technical submissions that are not required to be prepared by or under the responsible control of an architect if the architect has reviewed and adapted in whole or in part such submissions and integrated them into the work.
