Overview

The Joint Contracts Tribunal issued a new Design and Build Form in 2005, a successor to the JCT Standard Form of Building Contract with Contractor’s Design. It looks substantially different from its predecessor and it is different in structure and often in its wording. This major new edition of David Chappell’s well regarded book has been substantially revised to take account of the new contract terms and different structure.
