Book Description
Building contract claims for more time on projects represent one of the largest sources of dispute within the industry. However, identifying the causes of delays, and the effects they have on the project, is often difficult and the burden on the party seeking to prove delay is a heavy one. This book provides the construction professional with an analysis of how construction projects become delayed, the practical measures which can be taken to avoid such delays, and how the parties can protect their positions in the face of delays. It goes on to look at the requirements for producing a successful claim. It provides a straightforward guide to the legal issues, and also considers how the effects of delays can most practically be addressed. The Second Edition takes account of new case law since 1999, and has new sections on adjudication, risk allocations and the Society of Construction Law Delay Protocol. Very well received when it was first published, the book is aimed particularly at contractors, project managers and senior surveyors, but will also be of interest to construction lawyers.

Book Description
Construction Arbitration in Central and Eastern Europe Contemporary Issues Edited by: Crina Baltag & Cosmin Vasile The successful execution of a construction project is inextricably linked to the management of risks and the expeditious settlement of any disputes that may arise. In this regard, the wealth of experience gained by Central and Eastern European practitioners in dealing with complex issues arising in construction projects in the region is highly relevant to international arbitration. Thus, this timely book provides a combination of local expertise and cross-jurisdictional perspectives on topics that most often emerge in construction disputes and which resonate far beyond the specific region covered. The authors, all practitioners with significant expertise in international and domestic construction disputes in Central and Eastern European countries, focus on the following topics: the peculiarities of evidence in construction disputes; the probative value of dispute boards, as well as their enforceability; multi-party issues triggered by the participation of various stakeholders besides employer, contractor and subcontractors; provisional measures; arbitrability of contracts with public authorities; issues of liquidated damages; changes of legislation and costs over passage of time; time bar issues; and resolution of disputes related to construction projects as protected investments. Given the increasing number of disputes and the scarce resources available, this essential guide to contemporary topics in construction disputes, with its cross-border perspective, will prove invaluable to practitioners and to academics in the field of construction law and dispute resolution.

Book Description
Changes to the work on construction projects are a common cause of dispute. Such variations lead to thousands of claims in the UK every year and many more internationally. Liability for variations is not only relevant to claims for sums due for extra work but this is also an important underlying factor in many other construction disputes, such as delay, disruption, defects and project termination. This is the first book to deal exclusively with variations in construction contracts and provide the detailed and comprehensive coverage that it demands. Construction Contract Variations analyses the issues that arise in determining whether certain work is a variation, the contractor’s obligation to undertake such work as well as its right to be paid. It deals with the employer’s power to vary and the extent of its duties to approve changes. The book also analyses the role of the consultant in the process and the valuation of variations. It reviews these topics by reference to a range of construction contracts. This is an essential guide for practitioners and industry professionals who advise on these issues and have a role in managing, directing and compensating change. Participants in the construction industry will find this book an invaluable guide, as will specialists and students of construction law, project management and quantity surveying.
