This second edition of Construction Law: From Beginner to Practitioner provides a thorough and comprehensive guide to construction law by blending together black letter law and socio-legal approaches. This mixed methodology makes an ideal introduction to the subject for those studying to enter the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry in a professional capacity. Designed to equip the student with all they need to know about construction law, the topics covered include:
- the fundamentals of law and the English legal system
- contract, business, tort and property law
- procurement, subcontracting and partnering
- claims, damages, losses and expenses
- dispute resolution including mediation, arbitration, litigation and adjudication
The book's suitability for study is enhanced by its logical structure, chapter summaries and further reading lists whilst the role of law in achieving a more collaborative and less confrontational AEC industry is examined in detail. Fully updated throughout, this new edition includes coverage of post-Grenfell legislation; increased coverage of modern methods of construction and continuously evolving technologies such as BIM and digital twins; NEC4 and the latest JCT contract suite and the Construction Playbook.
This book is useful not only for understanding the basics, but also as a reference that practitioners will use time and again.
