This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Commercial pressures in recent years have placed new emphasis on the provisions for liquidated damages and extensions of time to be found in all standard forms of construction contracts." "Times for completion have shortened, levels of liquidated damages have risen, and the once familiar practice of employers waiving their right to deduct liquidated damages has disappeared." "A surge of cases in the courts reflects the increase in disputes on liquidated damages and extensions of time, and the legal rulings which have emerged show the need for all those involved in the financial management or contract administration of construction projects to be fully informed on the subject." "This book covers in detail the legal principles on liquidated damages and extensions of time and the effects and implications of recent judgments, and examines in depth the relevant clauses of the current standard forms of building and civil engineering contracts." "Particular attention is given to the pitfalls to be avoided in setting levels of liquidated damages, to the procedures which must be followed by architects, engineers and contract supervisors in granting extensions of time, and to clarifying the many misunderstandings on time and damages which abound in the construction industry."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: Is there a difference between inspecting and supervizing? What does ‘time-barred’ mean?

Professionals need answers which are pithy and straightforward, as well as legally rigorous. The two hundred questions in the book are real questions, picked from the thousands of telephone enquiries David Chappell has received as a Specialist Adviser to the Royal Institute of British Architects. The material is considerably updated from the first edition – weeded, extended and almost doubled in coverage. The questions range in content from extensions of time, liquidated damages and loss and/or expense to issues of warranties, bonds, novation, practical completion, defects, valuation, certificates and payment, architects’ instructions, adjudication and fees. Brief footnotes and a table of cases are included for those who wish to investigate further. This will be an invaluable reference for architects, project managers, contractors, QSs, employers and others involved in construction.

Book Synopsis Delay Analysis in Construction Contracts by : P. John Keane
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.
