Download or read book A Practical Guide to Construction Adjudication written by James Pickavance and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United Kingdom, adjudication is available as a right for parties to a construction contract, following the enactment of the Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act 1996. In general, within a comparatively short period of time, parties in dispute will have a decision from an adjudicator, which, except in limited circumstances, the courts will enforce. Adjudication has become the number one method of dispute resolution in the construction industry. The short timescale means that a party needs to know what to do, when to do it and be able to check that the other party and the adjudicator are following the right steps. A Practical Guide to Construction Adjudication gives parties the necessary information to achieve this. It provides a straightforward overview of the process and procedure of adjudication by reference to legislation and case law, augmented with practical guidance including suggestions on what to do or not to do, drafting tips and checklists. Separate chapters for Scotland and Northern Ireland identify and explain the differences in procedure and judicial interpretation between those jurisdictions and England and Wales, and further detailed explanations of the adjudication regimes in Australia, Ireland, Malaysia, New Zealand and Singapore are included. Each of the chapters on jurisdictions outside England and Wales has been written by senior experts in those jurisdictions to ensure the content is accurate and insightful. There are a range of helpful appendices including a bank of model form adjudication documents and tabulated detailed comparisons of the Scheme for Construction Contracts, the other major adjudication rules, the major adjudicator nominating bodies and the UK and international regimes. Readers will particularly appreciate the most comprehensive index of adjudication cases available, sorted into 260 subject headings providing immediate access to all the reported cases on any adjudication topic.

Download or read book Statutory Adjudication written by Derek Simmonds and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existing books on construction adjudication have either been written as an introduction to the subject when the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act was first introduced in 1996, or they are aimed at professionals representing parties or at adjudicators themselves. In contrast, this book has been written for the parties to adjudication, particularly those new to the process. It takes a straightforward, practical approach to the subject, dealing with the process step-by-step. The first part takes a party who is referring a dispute through the stages of the adjudication process, including the presentation of a referral submission, to the enforcement of an award. Part 2 examines the position of a party faced with adjudication, highlighting the various actions necessary to protect its interest, and explains how a decision can be challenged. Part 3 looks at matters of common interest. Statutory payment provisions and the Scheme for Construction Contracts are dealt with in Part 4, and Part 5 compares the most frequently used adjudication provisions and procedures. Appendices include an alphabetical list of 139 adjudication cases which are also categorised to show the aspect or aspects with which they are principally concerned.
