Uses examples and a theoretical project to explain how to apply various concepts such as common sense, dominant cause, but-for test and new intervening act. Identifies the principles that need to be applied to construction law. Presents the possibilities of incorrectness of current methods of programme analysis. Describes the practical steps to take in case of liability.
