520 _aThe case "Barnard Pipelines Technology Ltd v Marston Construction Co Ltd" (1992 CILL 73) has shown again the difficulty of striking down a clause as unreasonable in a construction dispute. After defects had appeared in piping supplied by B, M withheld payment in part, counterclaiming £45,000 for damages in response to an action by P to secure its money. M`s assertion that the conditions of sale were onerous, and, therefore, both unacceptable and unaccepted, was dismissed by the court, the conditions being held to be reasonable.
