Delay and disruption in the course of construction impacts upon
building projects of any scale. Now in its 5th edition Delay and
Disruption in Construction Contracts continues to be the
pre-eminent guide to these often complex and potentially costly
issues and has been cited by the judiciary as a leading textbook in
court decisions worldwide, see, for example, Mirant v Ove Arup
[2007] EWHC 918 (TCC) at [122] to [135] per the late His Honour
Judge Toulmin CMG QC. Whilst covering the manner in which delay and
disruption should be considered at each stage of a construction
project, from inception to completion and beyond, this book
includes: An international team of specialist advisory editors,
namely Francis Barber (insurance), Steve Briggs (time), Wolfgang
Breyer (civil law), Joe Castellano (North America), David-John
Gibbs (BIM), Wendy MacLaughlin (Pacific Rim), Chris Miers (dispute
boards), Rob Palles-Clark (money), and Keith Pickavance Comparative
analysis of the law in this field in Australia, Canada, England and
Wales, Hong Kong, Ireland, New Zealand, the United States and in
civil law jurisdictions Commentary upon, and comparison of,
standard forms from Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, the United
Kingdom, USA and elsewhere, including two major new forms New
chapters on adjudication, dispute boards and the civil law dynamic
Extensive coverage of Building Information Modelling New appendices
on the SCL Protocol (Julian Bailey) and the choice of delay
analysis methodologies (Nuhu Braimah) Updated case law (to December
2014), linked directly to the principles explained in the text,
with over 100 helpful "Illustrations" Bespoke diagrams, which are
available for digital download and aid explanation of multi-faceted
issues This book addresses delay and disruption in a manner which
is practical, useful and academically rigorous. As such, it remains
an essential reference for any lawyer, dispute resolver, project
manager, architect, engineer, contractor, or academic involved in
the construction industry.
Construction Law and Management explains the state of design
information appropriate to a given procurement route, and the need
to identify risks and strategies for managing them. This handy desk
side reference offers a comprehensive guide to construction law and
management and is essential reading for anyone in the construction,
architecture and engineering industries.

and contractors and more."
Coding and Modulation for Digital Television presents a
comprehensive description of all error control coding and digital
modulation techniques used in Digital Television (DTV). This book
illustrates the relevant elements from the expansive theory of
channel coding to how the transmission environment dictates the
choice of error control coding and digital modulation schemes.
These elements are presented in such a way that both the
mathematical integrity' and understanding for engineers' are
combined in a complete form and supported by a number of practical
examples. In addition, the book contains descriptions of the
existing standards and provides a valuable source of corresponding
references. Coding and Modulation for Digital Television also
features a description of the latest techniques, providing the
reader with a glimpse of future digital broadcasting. These include
the concepts of soft-in-soft-out decoding, turbo-coding and
cross-correlated quadrature modulation, all of which will have a
prominent future in improving efficiency of the next generation DTV
systems. Coding and Modulation for Digital Television is essential
reading for all undergraduate and postgraduate students,
broadcasting and communication engineers, researchers, marketing
managers, regulatory bodies, governmental organizations and
standardization institutions of the digital television industry.
