Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Law for Engineers, Vol. 1 Common Law and Statute Law. Law is conveniently and properly divided into two kinds: Common Law and Statute Law. Of these, Statute Law, as its name indicates, consists of laws and ordinances passed in set terms by the proper legislative bodies. The Common Law may be properly appreciated if it be stated that it represents the determination of what is right and wrong as found by the judges (or courts to which various cases have been submitted by parties to legal controversies; the decisions of the courts, so far as these are known to us, are found in the printed reports of cases which have been decided by courts of sufficient dignity to warrant perpetuating their decisions, and together they cover so large a field of probable dispute as to form a fairly complete guide as to the rules of conduct prescribed by the Common Law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineering Law, Vol. 1: The Law of Contract This book is intended for the use of engineers and engineering students. The purpose is to present a condensed text of the law of contract: to give the general theory of the subject as taught in schools of law, while yet avoiding the reading of endless cases. Following the various rules in the order given, it is hoped that the student will get an understanding of the subject sufficient to guide him in meeting the legal phases of whatever branch of engineering may engage him. It is the author's belief that the case system of teaching law is not the best for the engineer. On the other hand, the text-book method taken alone does not enable the student to understand fully how the courts work out the rules of law in connection with the concrete facts. A combination of the two methods judiciously arranged by the instructor seems better adapted to provide the student with a knowledge of this important subject than is the present meager lecture system. To this end the rules of law in each chapter are followed by cases from practice, in many instances involving situations closely allied to engineering and intended to illustrate the application of the rules previously learned. Brief extracts from opinions in cases of a strictly engineering nature are given at the end of each section for the purpose of further illustration. The law of contract as presented to the majority of engineering schools at the present time consists of half a dozen lectures dcliv ered by an attorney, who, aside from these lectures, does no further lecturing or teaching. The result is what might be expected: the engineering student graduates with practically no knowledge of the subject. This text is intended for use as a recitation course, to be supplemented by an occasional lecture by the instructor, and to be given by an experienced professor of engineering. The author is indebted to Dean Clarence D. Ashley of New York University Law School for matter on Conditions in Contract, and to Samuel Williston, Professor of Law, Harvard University, for the privilege of using a number of cases from his Case-book on Contracts. Acknowledgment is also made to John C. Wait, author of The Law of Contracts, for various excerpts from engineering decisions. A. B.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineering Law the Law of Contract, Vol. 1 In many of the cases it has been thought advisable, for the sake of brevity, to rewrite or abridge the statement of facts, and this has been done without calling special attention to the matter. Portions of opinions on points irrelevant to the subject illustrated are often omitted, but such omissions are clearly indicated. Every citation in the Opinions has been verified, and corrections made where the original is manifestly wrong.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Law for Engineers, Vol. 1 When a teacher of railroad engineering writes a book on law, some justification ought to be expected from him. The author was admitted to the Bar of New Mexico, and practised law there, serving as local attorney for the A. T. & S. F. R. R. and as City Attorney of Socorro. He was later admitted to practice in Massachusetts. He also spent several years as a civil engineer in water works, sewerage, and railroad construction. The purpose of this book is not to make "every man his own lawyer," but rather to give the engineer a sufficient understanding of important fundamental features of law, so that he may have some idea of when or how to act himself and when to seek expert advice, as well as to enlarge his horizon and perhaps encourage him to further study of law. Many engineers will find that there is some chapter which covers ground concerning which they are better informed than the author or than most practising lawyers. They will, nevertheless, probably find other chapters with which they are less familiar, and which may prove interesting. Thus book can treat any of the subjects of Part I only briefly, and it is hoped that it may be judged by the good it contains rather than criticized for omissions. The entire ground of law cannot be covered in the space available. The preparation has extended over several years, partly in trying to avoid the plight of the business man who once apologized for a long letter; he had not time to write a short one. Some variation in the style will be noted in passing from Part I to Part II. In the latter, the words Contractor, Engineer, Owner, Company, City, and Board are capitalized, as these parties seem to be more clearly distinguished by this means. The important documents which constitute the subjects treated in Part II, as Advertisement, Proposal, Contract, Bond, Specifications, and Information for Bidders, are also capitalized for a similar reason. The system of paging is unusual, and was adopted to give flexibility in revision. The nature of the book is such that later revision will certainly be desirable and even necessary. New legislation touching corporations and workmen's compensation acts may be considered certain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Law and Business of Engineering and Contracting: With Numerous Forms and Blanks for Practical Use It is sincerely hoped that the discussion of the relation between the engineer and contractor in Chapter I will result, in many cases, in a better feeling between the engineer and the contractor as they may come together on contract work. The writer has made it a lifelong study to further the good feeling that should exist between them, but must confess to having made so little progress as to despair of seeing a better condi tion of affairs result. Yet the writer is convinced that by continually keeping at it, on the part of those having this matter at heart, much good will eventually come about. The subject of ordinary forms of contracts is one on which there has been much written, and is a subject on which the engineer should be well posted as to fundamentals. In addi tion to reading the standard works on the subject of contracts, it is very easy for each engineer to get together such standard forms as are valuable and file them in shape for handy refer ence. It is believed that the forms given herein will be found of much use to everyone as a basis for a larger collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Law, Vol. 1: A Working Manual of Every-Day Law Law and order are the necessary foundations for civilized life. A pastoral people with few possessions needs few and simple laws. A populous, modern state with complex social, industrial, and commercial relations requires intricate and far reaching regulations. In this country the latter condition prevails, and our present legal system has not kept pace with our perhaps too rapid progress in other ways. Our system of laws is an inheritance from our Anglo Saxon ancestors, supplemented by written constitutions and multitudinous legislative enactments. Much of our law is judge-made. Like our forebears, we revere precedents and decisions and have more of this kind of law than we know how to use. We have our federal courts and forty-eight separate state systems, all grinding out innumerable volumes of reports. In consequence, this source of law has become cumbersome and somewhat unmanageable. Beyond this we are subject to the Constitution of the United States with its eighteen amendments, as well as the constitutions of our individual states; to the enactments of Congress and to those of our state legislatures; to the ordinances of boards of alder men; to the regulations of boards of health and education; and to the orders of many other boards, bureaus, commissions, and officials. With the multiplicity of regulation that all this entails, it requires no small amount of care and study to avoid unwitting entanglement in the far-extended meshes of the law. Yet from this unwieldy mass of law may be elicited cer tain guiding principles that everyone should know - general rules that will guide us safely past most of the difficult places.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contracts in Engineering: The Interpretation and Writing of Engineering-Commercial Agreements; An Elementary d104book for Students in Engineering, Engineers, Contractors and Business Men Present Aim and Scope of Work. This book aims especially to familiarize the engineering student with the major principles of common law relating to contracts, and touches other legal branches only incidentally and so far as will materially assist him to grasp the doctrines Of contract law applying to that subject. TO many engineers the only justification for this book may lie in an acceptable restatement Of the principles-underlying successful specification writing. The great importance of this field has been recognized, and fully a third Of the book devoted to it. But with the present commercial tendency Of engineering, it is believed that the contracts Of business demand the modern engineer's attention about equally with those Of engineering construction. About one-third of the book, therefore, deals with commercial contracts, while the balance deals with elementary principles common to all contracts, and the interrelations between contracts, torts, agency, and real property.
