Description
Book SynopsisAdjudication has been the main means of settling construction disputes since it was first introduced by the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, and a substantial body of case law has now built up.
This book established itself as the key authority on adjudication when it was first published. It has now been revised to reflect the authors'' experience of adjudication in practice and to cover the large number of court decisions. It features useful appendices on adjudication materials.
