Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis on the use of warranties in road construction will be of interest to administrators, engineers, designers, and contractors involved with highway design and construction and the procurement process for these services. Experiences with use of warranties in Europe and the United States are cited and the potential impacts, benefits, and concerns of using warranties in the United States are identified. Actions needed to facilitate the use of warranties for highway projects in the United States are also discussed. The use of warranties in road construction is relatively widespread in the European highway industry compared to practice in the United States, where use has been limited. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the various methods used in Europe for highway industry warranties and identifies the issues that need to be addressed before construction warranties can be translated to U.S. practice. Recent congressional proposals call for the use of warranties to be allowed on federal-aid highway projects. This has caused varied reactions from the parties involved in the design and construction of highways, resulting in a General Accounting Office study on methods for improving the quality of federal-aid highways, including the use of warranties. Ultimately, the owner will have to decide whether to use warranties in highway construction projects. Some of the potential benefits and concerns of using warranties, plus needed actions for successful implementation are presented in this synthesis, which is considered a snapshot of the issues at the time of publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to administrators, contracting officers, engineers, and contractors, as well as bonding firms and sureties or others involved with highway construction and the procurement process for these services. Information is provided on the current practices used by state highway agencies to qualify contractors for performing competitively bid contract work. The synthesis covers the evolution of the various practices of qualifying contractors by public agencies and private sureties for public construction, discusses the surety industry perspective, and addresses the areas of overlap between them, as well as the important differences. Specific advantages and disadvantages of prequalification and postqualification practices are highlighted. This report of the Transportation Research Board also describes the bonding process, methods used by public agencies to determine the contractor's bonding capacity, and the extent to which only bonding is required by states.
Download or read book Indemnification and insurance requirements for design consultants and contractors on highway projects written by Darrell W. Harp and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a new paper, which continues NCHRP's policy of keeping departments up-to-date on laws that will affect their operations. This paper will be published in a future addendum to "Selected Studies in Highway Law" (SSHL). Insurance and indemnification requirements have played an important part in government contracting for construction. Government transportation agencies should ensure proper insurance coverage for tort liability, and faulty design and construction to minimize charges to the capital or operating budgets when something goes wrong. This research should be helpful to transportation departments' administrators, design and construction engineers, contracting officers, right-of-way officials, and attorneys. This report should be particularly informative for any official who needs to know how a potential liability claim should be handled, the pitfalls to avoid when buying or accepting insurance coverage, and against which insurance coverage a claim should be filed.
