The Joint Contracts Tribunal issued a new Design and Build Form in
2005, a successor to the JCT Standard Form of Building Contract
with Contractor's Design. It looks substantially different from its
predecessor and it is different in structure and often in its
wording.
This major new edition of David Chappell's well regarded book
has been substantially revised to take account of the new contract
terms and different structure. It also considers: the latest RIBA
Terms of Engagementthe standard novation agreements from the CIC
and City of London Law SocietyMore than 70 additional cases
It discusses areas where problems frequently arise: the
allocation of design responsibilitydiscrepanciesthe role of the
employer's agentpayment provisionsthe approval of drawings
The book will be useful for contractors, for professionals
acting as employer's agent, whether architect, engineer or
surveyor, and for the design team acting for the contractor. It
will also be of interest to employers embarking on design and build
for the first time and to lawyers.
From reviews of the last edition:
"an authoritative guide to case law this book] is also unafraid of
controversy... it remains an enjoyable and essential read for
professionals and lawyers involved in design and build"

"David Chappell's knowledge of his subject is encyclopaedic, but
