Publisher's Synopsis
This book established itself as the leading work on the subject of claims under building contracts when it was first published ten years ago. Originally written jointly by a lawyer and a quantity surveyor specialising in claims, it explains the legal basis of contractor′s claims under all the main building contracts and considers the practical implications. The new edition is a substantial revision and considers two new contracts – the JCT Management Contract and Prime Cost Form – as well as amendments to other JCT Forms and recent decisions of the courts.
