2001 | 291 Pages | ISBN: 0632057416 | PDF | 5 MB
Since it came into force on 31 January 1997 the Arbitration Act 1996 has generally been welcomed by users and practitioners in the construction industry. It has fulfilled expectations that it would provide a user-friendly and practical basis of resolving disputes arising from construction contracts in a fair, expeditious and economical way. In doing so it has generated a modest volume of case law that has demonstrated the excellence of the Act's provisions and its drafting. Since the Fourth Edition of this book appeared in 1997 the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 with its Scheme for Construction Contracts Regulations 1998 have come into force, as have the Civil Procedure Rules 1998, both of which affect the resolution of disputes arising from construction contracts. Case law has arisen from the Construction Act, and from the House of Lords' judgment in the Beaufort Developments case, overturning the much-criticised judgment of the Court of Appeal in Crouch. In this Fifth Edition of an established text the author deals with each stage of an arbitration, explaining in practical terms the procedures to be adopted in avoiding disputes and in dealing with them efficiently when they do arise. It features over 20 specimen arbitration documents and includes the full text of the Act. It also covers several important developments in case law affecting construction arbitrations, and refers to the introduction and case law arising from adjudication under the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1-13): Chapter 2 Arbitration Agreements (pages 14-38): Chapter 3 Appointment of the Arbitrator (pages 39-44): Chapter 4 Jurisdiction of the Arbitrator (pages 45-54): Chapter 5 The Preliminaries (pages 55-77): Chapter 6 Evidence (pages 78-85): Chapter 7 The Hearing (pages 86-93): Chapter 8 The Award (pages 94-110): Chapter 9 Costs (pages 111-119): Chapter 10 Powers of the Court in Relation to the Award (pages 120-124): Chapter 11 Dispute Avoidance and Management (pages 125-143):
