Which of the following is NOT a type of construction team member?

The role of an architect is typically associated with the design and planning phases of a construction project rather than direct involvement in the construction process itself. While architects are critical team members, responsible for creating the designs, overseeing compliance with building codes and ensuring that aesthetic and functional requirements are met, they do not perform construction tasks or manage the day-to-day operations on the construction site.

In contrast, construction managers, general contractors, and subcontractors are all directly involved in the physical construction process. Construction managers oversee the overall project, coordinating between various stakeholders and ensuring that the project adheres to timelines and budgets. General contractors are responsible for the entire construction project, hiring and managing subcontractors, and ensuring that the project is completed as per the plans. Subcontractors specialize in specific tasks, such as electrical work or plumbing, and report to the general contractor.

So, in the context of construction team members who are actively engaged in the construction activities, the architect stands apart as not being a direct member of that specific group.
