Download or read book Construction Law Update 2020 written by Sweeney and published by Wolters Kluwer. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2020 Construction Law Update provides current coverage of legal issues that have a practical impact on the day-to-day functioning of the very dynamic processes in a dynamic industry, that is, construction. Highlights of the 2020 update include: Five chapters take readers through notable cases throughout the past year in the various regions of the country including recent developments under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the False Claims Act (FCA), various federal regulations that potentially impact federal contractors, revised procedural rules in the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals, and recent Department of Justice Memoranda impacting claims under the FCA. This edition also addresses developments in employees' health and safety issues as well as construction law developments. Contracting with the federal government comes with its own set of pitfalls. This year's chapter is written by a former JAG officer who has worked for and dealt with the government procurement process for over 40 years. Chances are his insight will bring new perspectives to navigating the treacherous federal government waters. Space. The Final Construction Site. This supplement contains an interesting and unique chapter dealing with building the International Space Station. Not a typical construction site, but a crowded one with fourteen different nations participating in the build. Who will get to and build on the Moon and Mars first? How do you build in zero gravity? Arbitration is a viable and popular alternative to the court process. The more you know and the more you prepare in advance, the better the outcome. Not only is arbitration a preference domestically, but with our global economy, arbitration is also a popular international option. Labor and employment should always be at the forefront of everyone's mind when putting together a team for a project, managing that team, or being part of the team. This chapter covers authorization to work, employment relationships, pay, ADA, sexual harassment and retaliation. These issues are not just for the owners and executives. We all have an obligation to the environment, and there are a myriad of environmental issues facing the construction industry today. Owners and contractors not only have to know how to build, but also have to know where to build and what impact that build will have on air and water pollution, stormwater, wastewater, noise, habitat loss, and much more. Why should an owner have a Suspension of Work clause in their contracts? This Update offers practical recommendations on what actions contractors should take to protect the recovery of damages and why these actions may help owners resolve claims in the field rather than the court.

Download or read book Practical Guide to the NEC3 Professional Services Contract written by Michael Rowlinson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently in its third edition, the NEC suite has become one of the UK’s leading families of standard forms of contract for major construction and civil engineering projects. Part of the NEC suite, the Professional Services Contract (PSC) was drafted with the same process-based approach and objectives, offering a standard contract for the appointment of consultants providing professional services in an engineering or construction project. Embodying best practice in terms of project management, the basic philosophy of the PSC differs from the principles and approach of other standard contracts used to appoint consultants. This book is a practical guide to the application of the PSC. Starting with a brief discussion of the background and philosophy behind the PSC, it identifies the roles and responsibilities of each of the named functions within the contract, explains the approaches required to achieve a successful working relationship between all parties, and examines all the procedures in the PSC. The book explains the links between the various sections of the contract to assist the reader with cross referencing, and covers all the variations created by the Main and Secondary Options. As a very practical guide it will aid users in the transition from their use and understanding of the other standard contracts to the collaborative project management-based approach of the PSC. Written for anyone working in the construction and related industries using the PSC to procure or provide consultancy services in relation to a construction project, it will be of interest to the complete construction supply chain, particularly architects, structural engineers, services (M&E) engineers, civil engineers, quantity surveyors and interior designers, together with Contractors and Sub-Contractors who have a design liability and employ consultants to assist them. It will also be of interest to consultants and lawyers advising any of these parties, either in the preparation of contract documentation or the resolution of problem situations which may arise.
