"Covers key contract conditions, rights and obligations, and risk under the JCT 2011 Building Sub-contracts"--

The majority of construction work is carried out by sub-contractors. As building projects become more complex, sub-contractors need to understand the implications of the agreements they sign. The JCT 2011 Building Sub-contracts has been written to help the busy sub-contractor deal effectively with the range of JCT 2011 sub-contracts they will encounter. It covers the most commonly used 2011 sub-contracts, looking at the key contract conditions, the rights and obligations of the parties and how risk is allocated. A key element of the book is the discussion of the main practical problems that arise. Accessible and practical, this book will ensure building and construction sub-contractors understand these contracts and have an easy to consult reference if any arise. It will also be of interest to main contractors, architects, contract administrators, project managers, quantity surveyors, contracts consultants and construction lawyers.

Barnes, a construction consultant, arbitrator, adjudicator, mediator, and expert witness, and Davies, a quality surveyor and solicitor specializing in the construction industry, explain all of the major subcontracts in relation to JCT (Joint Contracts Tribunal) 2011 building contract forms in the UK, focusing on the Standard Building Sub-contract, Standard Building Sub-contract with sub-contractor's design, Design and Build Sub-contract, Intermediate Sub-contract, and Intermediate Sub-contract with sub-contractors' design. They detail background on the sub-contracts, the sub-contract agreement, and the areas of definitions and interpretations; general obligations; time; defects, design documents, and warranties; control of the sub-contract works; payment; loss and expense; variations; injury, damage, and insurance; termination of the sub-contract; and settlement of disputes.
