and this 'clause' forms a part of the report. Actually forget the 'report' bit - it is causing too much confusion. I will leave it to you, Scott, to make an expert judgment - you asked for some input from England, so I think I have contributed more than enough on that front :)

Znalecké posudky

– ocenenia nehnuteľností vyhotovujú znalci zapísaní v zozname znalcov, prípadne súdni znalci zapísaní v zozname súdnych znalcov,
– ocenenie nehnuteľností sa uskutočňuje na základe znaleckého posudku, znalecký posudok možno podať písomne a v konaní pred súdom alebo iným orgánom verejnej moci aj ústne do zápisnice. Súd alebo iný orgán verejnej moci určí formu znaleckého posudku,

– znalecká doložka, ktorá je neoddeliteľnou súčasťou znaleckého posudku, obsahuje identifikačné údaje znalca, označenie odboru a odvetvia, v ktorom je znalec oprávnený podávať znalecké posudky, a poradové číslo úkonu znaleckej činnosti, pod ktorým je znalecký posudok zapísaný v denníku,

Exactly - that is the surveyor's report. There is no translation of 'Znalecká doložka' in UK English, but this is the closest you can get. There are several different types of surveyor - just choose the one that fits the bill.

is similar to a notary clause

has nothing to do with architecture, quantity surveying etc. According to my opinion, it is the title of the seal, which is given on an expert's opinion of an expert appointed by the state with the so called "kulaté razítko". Such expert is an expert for appraisal of real estates (real estates appraiser), their repairs and not quantity surveyor. This znalecká doložka says that the appraiser was certified by some chamber or institution authorised by the state.

... and in UK English at least there is no such thing as an 'expert clause', which is pure Czenglish :) (as are many entries in the legal dictionary!) There are many types of survey - Building/Structural/Quantity, etc - just choose the one that fits the situation best. If it is something like this one http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:iwq_DpsHZ80J:www.drazby... then it is a building survey, or just a 'survey' on its own will suffice. The word 'doložka' itself has no proper translation in this context.

In that case then it is a job for a surveyor or quantity surveyor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantity_surveyor

12:18 Jul 13, 2009 

it is for many different areas of expertise, from appraising real estate to judging mergers and separations of companies, it just so happens the translation is an extract from something and really involves modifications and their appraisal to a chateau in order to bring it in line with tougher fire safety regulations...that's all I have to go on

I mean, does it belong to a design, or somewhere els?

11:23 Jul 13, 2009 

but this has to exist in English, and there are no direct hits on either, if either were correct, I'd expect to see some from England, or other EU country for instance.
