Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2020 Construction Law Update provides current coverage of legal issues that have a practical impact on the day-to-day functioning of the very dynamic processes in a dynamic industry, that is, construction. Highlights of the 2020 update include: Five chapters take readers through notable cases throughout the past year in the various regions of the country including recent developments under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the False Claims Act (FCA), various federal regulations that potentially impact federal contractors, revised procedural rules in the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals, and recent Department of Justice Memoranda impacting claims under the FCA. This edition also addresses developments in employees' health and safety issues as well as construction law developments. Contracting with the federal government comes with its own set of pitfalls. This year's chapter is written by a former JAG officer who has worked for and dealt with the government procurement process for over 40 years. Chances are his insight will bring new perspectives to navigating the treacherous federal government waters. Space. The Final Construction Site. This supplement contains an interesting and unique chapter dealing with building the International Space Station. Not a typical construction site, but a crowded one with fourteen different nations participating in the build. Who will get to and build on the Moon and Mars first? How do you build in zero gravity? Arbitration is a viable and popular alternative to the court process. The more you know and the more you prepare in advance, the better the outcome. Not only is arbitration a preference domestically, but with our global economy, arbitration is also a popular international option. Labor and employment should always be at the forefront of everyone's mind when putting together a team for a project, managing that team, or being part of the team. This chapter covers authorization to work, employment relationships, pay, ADA, sexual harassment and retaliation. These issues are not just for the owners and executives. We all have an obligation to the environment, and there are a myriad of environmental issues facing the construction industry today. Owners and contractors not only have to know how to build, but also have to know where to build and what impact that build will have on air and water pollution, stormwater, wastewater, noise, habitat loss, and much more. Why should an owner have a Suspension of Work clause in their contracts? This Update offers practical recommendations on what actions contractors should take to protect the recovery of damages and why these actions may help owners resolve claims in the field rather than the court.

Download or read book Delay Analysis in Construction Contracts written by P. John Keane and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most significant unanticipated costs on many construction projects are the financial impacts associated with delay and disruption to the works. Assessing these, and establishing a causal link from each delay event to its effect, contractual liability and the damages experienced as a direct result of each event, can be difficult and complex. This book is a practical guide to the process of delay analysis and includes an in-depth review of the primary methods of delay analysis, together with the assumptions that underlie the precise calculations required in any quantitative delay analysis. The techniques discussed can be used on projects of any size, under all forms of construction contract, both domestic and international. The authors discuss not only delay analysis techniques, but also their appropriateness under given circumstances, demonstrating how combined approaches may be applied where necessary. They also consider problematic issues including ‘who owns the float’, concurrent delay, early completion programmes, and disruption. The book has been brought fully up to date, including references to the latest publications from the CIOB, AACEI and SCL, as well as current case law. Broad in scope, the book discusses the different delay analysis approaches likely to be encountered on national and international projects, and features practical worked examples and case studies demonstrating the techniques commonly used by experienced practitioners. This is an invaluable resource to programmers and schedulers, delay analysts, contractors, architects, engineers and surveyors. It will also be of interest to clients’ professional advisors managing extension of time or delay claims, as well as construction lawyers who require a better understanding of the underlying assumptions on which many quantitative delay analyses are based. Reviews of First Edition "John Keane and Anthony Caletka are pukka analysts in that tricky area of delays, programming and extension of time. I highly recommend their book Delay Analysis in Construction Contracts. Buy the book." (Building Magazine, February 2009) "The book′s stated purpose is to provide a practical guide for those interested in schedule delay analysis. It provides a good in–depth review of the most common delay analysis techniques.... An excellent book, full of practical tips for the reader and very timely in its publication. It is well worth the cost and a good read for anyone involved in schedule delay analysis." (Cost Engineering, February 2009) It achieves in spades its stated aim of being a practical guide for contractors, contract administrators, programmers and delay analysts, as well as construction lawyers who require a better understanding of the underlying assumptions on which many quantitative delay analyses are based.
