What are design obligations in construction contracts [electronic resource] - 2010 - Construction Journal Feb-Mar 2010, 11-12(2) .

Reviews the design obligations and liabilities and differences between the liability of a contractor under a building contract and that of a professional designer under an appointment. The designer has an obligation implied by section 13 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. This essentially means that a designer will only be liable if it can be proved that he is professionally negligent.
