frequently forming the basis of contract claims made under the
standard building and civil engineering contracts. Previous
editions of Liquidated Damages and Extensions of Time are
highly regarded as a guide for both construction industry
professionals and lawyers to this complex area.
The law on time and damages continues to develop with an
increasing flow of judgments from the courts. Alongside this, the
standard forms of contract have also developed over time to reflect
prevailing approaches to contractual relationships. Against this
background a third edition will be welcomed by construction
professionals and lawyers alike. Retaining the overall approach of
the previous editions, the author clarifies, in a highly readable
but legally rigorous way, the many misunderstandings on time and
damages which abound in the construction industry. The third
edition takes account of a large volume of new case law since the
previous edition was published over ten years ago, includes a new
chapter on delay analysis and features significantly expanded
chapters on penalty clauses, the effects of conditions precedent
and time-bars, and the complexities of causation.
