Download or read book Winward Fearon on Collateral Warranties written by David L. Cornes and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since this book was first published over ten years ago, collateral warranties have been used increasingly by funding institutions, building purchasers and tenants to create a contractual relationship between themselves and other parties involved in the project, whether architect, engineer, contractor or subcontractor. Indeed, collateral warranties are now being used to create primary contractual obligations. There have been some immensely important developments in the law relating to collateral warranties since the first edition. The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 has introduced radical new developments into English contract law. The book now includes a completely new chapter on the legislation, which also looks at the potential practical uses of the Act on development projects. The House of Lords has handed down a number of key decisions recently on third party remedies and on the principles relating to damages on assignment (such as Linden Gardens, Panatown, Henderson v. Merrett Syndicates and White v. Jones). These and some 65 other new cases are considered in the new edition. Finally, a number of standard forms of warranty have been issued and these are now discussed, in particular the new JCT standard form of warranty for main contractors and subcontractors. This immensely important book was widely welcomed when it was first published. The new edition has been thoroughly updated and will continue to be the authoritative reference on the subject. "David Cornes and Richard Winward's book is a veritable mine of such information and is eminently readable" Construction News 16/05/02 "For those of you working in construction, managing building or indeed other contracts, you must have at least one authoritative source of advice and information. If this is your area of work, then this is your book" Building Engineer, July 2002

Book Synopsis Collateral Warranties by : Winward Fearon
Download or read book Collateral Warranties written by Winward Fearon and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1991-01-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of collateral warranties has been rapidly growing in the UK since the mid 1980s. Following the recent ruling in July 1990 of the House of Lords in Murphy v. Brentwood District Council (extending its decision in D & F Estates Ltd v. The Church Commissioners (1988)) the prospects of success of tenants and subsequent purchasers in a claim for negligence have been severely restricted. This radical change in the law has lead developers, tenants, subsequent purchasers and funding institutions to seek a contractual, creating a direct contractual relationship with architects, engineers, contractors and sub-contractors. The remedy has its own problems. Very few standard forms of collateral warranty exist and even those recently introduced are not yet widely used - developers, tenants, purchasers and funding institutions have therefore produced their own forms which they seek to impose. In commercial transactions the courts are not necessarily concerned with fairness. Collateral warranties may create extremely onerous legal burdens, often greater and longer lasting than those which exist under the contract to which they relate, and which may cause serious problems in relation to professional indemnity insurance cover. Now for the fist time, this unique book provides expert and practical guidance to collateral warranties. Related areas of the law are clearly and comprehensively explained, providing an invaluable account of this important and controversial subject. It is essential reading for all those involved in the construction industry and their legal advisers

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 2009-01-26 with total page 288 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, which is well illustrated, features practical worked examples and case studies demonstrating the techniques commonly used by experienced practitioners. This is an invaluable resource to contractors, architects, engineers, surveyors, programmers and delay analysts, and 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.
