Details

ConsensusDOCS Contract Documents Handbook is a guidebook to the ConsensusDOCS suite of standard contract document forms. It examines the elements of various ConsensusDOCS standard form contract documents, including an examination of specific contract provisions and the theory underlying the language.

The standard contract document forms cover a variety of project delivery systems: design-build, construction manager at risk and collaborative project delivery. The documents are unique in their creation by a joint effort of the players in various construction endeavors; owners; contractors; subcontractors; etc.

The standard contract document forms establish the relationships between the parties to the construction project:

the owner
the contractor
the surety
the subcontractor
the design-builder
the construction manager

The book offers great value and assistance to attorneys, owners, contractors, subcontractors, designers, design-builders, construction managers, others in the construction industry and educators. This reference analyses topics such as green building, surety and the tri-party agreement for collaborative project delivery.

Formerly published as AGC Contract Documents Handbook, the ConsensusDOCS Contract Documents Handbook provides practical advice to document users on how to manuscript the documents to address project specific issues as well as offer comments on the documents.
