About this book

A comprehensive guide to developments in construction contracts law. The author 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 with clarity using helpful illustrations. There is a detailed discussion of ways to minimise 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.
