520 _aProvides a summary of recent developments in the construction, engineering and energy.
520 _aReflects on how much still remains uncertain about Brexit and its implications for the UK construction industry. It looks at what constitutes an unreasonable failure to mediate and discusses product liability: asking whether there is a limit on the level of damages awarded in actions for wrongful death arising from defective products. In the adjudication update it focuses on payment notices and costs. It then looks at extensions of time, concurrency and the new edition of the SCL Delay & Disruption Protocol. It discusses site conditions, focusing on who takes the risk if it turns out to be unexpectedly adverse, and explains some of the changes to be found in the new editions of the FIDIC and NEC4 forms. The Review focuses on recent developments in arbitration in the UAE and it explains more about the first reported court case in the UK about BIM. It also discusses design obligations, addressing fitness for purpose and the MTH v E.ON case as well as considering the more literalist approach of the courts when it comes to interpreting contracts, even if this results in an unfair decision.
