Extensions of time down to the architects - 2001 - Construction News (6705) 1 March 2001, 14(1) .
In standard construction contracts the contractor is allowed an extension of time for certain specified events. Considers the obligation of the architect who decides if and what extension of time is due. Examines "Royal Brompton Hospital NHS Trust v Watkins Gray International" (2000) which centred around a claim by the hospital that W was in breach of contract, or negligent in granting extensions of time. The hospital's claims were dismissed because its allegations of Ws performance had not been considered by an independent architect.
