Product Description
Review
'A clearly written guide to the most widely used JCT contracts.' – The Architects' Journal
Product Description
This eigth edition of David Chappell’s bestselling guide to the most popular form of construction contracts has been completely revised to take into account the new contracts which have been introduced since May 2005. These include: JCT Standard Building Contract (SBC), JCT Intermediate Building Contract (IC) and ‘with contractor’s design’ (ICD), JCT Minor Works Building Contract (MW) and ‘with contractor’s design’ (MWD), and JCT Design and Build Contract (DB) which have replaced the old JCT 98, IFC 98, MW 98, and WCD 98 contracts.
Each contract has been restructured and all the clause numbers have changed together with some terminology. Virtually all the clauses have been reworded and updated in line with recent case law.
Chappell avoids legal jargon but writes with authority and precision. Architects, quantity surveyors, contractors and students of these professions will find this a straightforward and practical reference tool arranged by topic.

As the title suggests this is a comment on the fact that Amazon send you the 5th edition rather than the 8th!
I'm sure the book is great it's just Amazon that need to get there act together as I have little need for a book on JCT contracts from 1984!

Although JCT 2005 are out dated now, it is one of the most helpful books on the market to help you understand contracts!! Easy to read and well sub-divided!
Format:Paperback
I bought this book to study for my Assessment of Professional Competence and found it superb. I am from Scotland so there are a few sections which are different but generally i found the book easy to read, well structured and detailed. Hopefully an update for the 2011 suite will be released.
