Author Description

This book is filled with indispensable advice to help site agents working under the ICE Conditions reconcile the differing concerns of the parties involved in construction projects. Based on many years work as a contractor, the author promotes a greater practical understanding of contracts and of the sometimes conflicting needs of those parties. Concentrating on practical work situations, each chapter examines part of the construction process and how the relevant sections of all the clauses affect and control that part of the process. At the same time, much consideration is given to commercial pressures, whose influence on events can seldom be ignored. Thus, a fuller understanding of the overall effect of the clauses on a particular situation can be achieved.
