For some years there has been growing dissatisfaction with
litigation and arbitration as a means of settling construction
disputes, and increasingly parties have been turning to
adjudication and alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
This trend was given a major impetus by the introduction of the
1996 Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act and the
Scheme for Construction Contracts, which resulted in statutory
adjudication being introduced in most of the main building and
engineering standard forms.
This book surveys the growth of ADR and looks in detail at the
various methods:
* adjudication and expert determination
* mediation and conciliation
* dispute review boards and disputes advisers
* other forms, such as mini-trial and mediation-arbitration
It discusses the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration
Act and the Scheme for Construction Contracts, and their effect on
adjudication and construction contracts considering both procedural
and legal issues. It looks in detail at the adjudication clauses of
all the main building and engineering contracts.
