A guide to developments in construction contracts law. It explains typical problem areas using illustrations, and discusses procedures for treating a variety of contractual problems. It also suggests guidelines for better practice on the part of the employer's team as well as contractors.
Claims are a fact of life. Contracts and the general law contemplate that they are likely to occur. The nature of the industry and the type of work involved are such that it would be surprizing if claims did not feature in many projects. Acceptance of these facts and good management and policy are essential if claims are to be dealt with successfully. This guide to developments in construction contracts law approaches the subject of construction claims from the point of view of prevention, management, administration, presentation, negotiation and settlement, including alternative dispute resolution and arbitration. Typical problem areas are explained using illustrations. There is a discussion of ways to minimize exposure to claims, monitoring, records and procedures for dealing with a variety of contractual problems. Guidelines are suggested for better practice on the part of the employer's professional team, as well as contractors and subcontractors.

Brief history of construction contracts and case law; choice of contracts; tender and acceptance; monitering delay and disruption claims; formulation and presentation of claims; subcontractors; response to claims - counter-claims; avoidance, resolution and settlement of disputes. Appendix: sample claim for extension of time and additional payment.
