The Joint Contracts Tribunal?s suite of contracts (commonly
known as JCT 2005) are the most commonly used in the UK to procure major building work. Understanding the contracts, and which to use,
is vital knowledge for all students on construction-related HND or degree courses, but these clauses can contain convoluted language,
leading to confusion. This easy-to-follow guide takes the reader through the JCT 2005 building contracts clause by clause, in an easy-to-follow
format, in simple but effective language that eliminates misinterpretation.
Spilt into 3 sections, this book provides
a summary of the current JCT Contracts, identifying which to use for what type of work, along with an analysis of their risk, liability,
documentation, design responsibility and financial procedures, ensuring that JCT 2005 Building Contract: clause by clause is the vital,
definitive reference for the aspiring construction professional.
