Considers the implications of of "Havant BC v South Coast Shipping Company". At issue was whether a method statement which had not been made a contract document could be considered part of the `works` for the purpose of the contract. The judge held that a specified method of working fell within the definition of temporary works and that where such methods proved impossible, the contractor may be entitled to a claim for variation under clause 51.
