Many of these claims are unsound or ill-founded, often because the basic principles are misunderstood.  \u003cp\u003eThis highly regarded book examines the legal basis of claims for extensions of time and additional payment, and what can and cannot be claimed under the main forms of contract. It includes chapters dealing with direct loss and expense, liquidated damages, extension of time, concurrency problems, acceleration, time at large, common law and contractual claims, global claims, and heads of claim and their substantiation. With the publication of the fifth edition, \u003ci\u003eBuilding Contract Claims\u003c\/i\u003e has been thoroughly revised to ensure it is fully up to date with the latest contracts, court judgments and building practice.
