Alongside this, the standard forms of contract have also developed over time to reflect prevailing approaches to contractual relationships. Against this background a third edition will be welcomed by construction professionals and lawyers alike. Retaining the overall approach of the previous editions, the author clarifies, in a highly readable but legally rigorous way, the many misunderstandings on time and damages which abound in the construction industry. The third edition takes account of a large volume of new case law since the previous edition was published over ten years ago, includes a new chapter on delay analysis and features significantly expanded chapters on penalty clauses, the effects of conditions precedent and time-bars, and the complexities of causation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003ePreface.\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eReferences.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAcknowledgements.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 General overview.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Legal developments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Contractual developments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Time in contracts.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Problems with terminology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Conditions and warranties.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Termination.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Time for performance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.5 Time of the essence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.6 Notice making time of the essence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.7 Time at large.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.8 Reasonable time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.9 Fixing time by reference to correspondence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.10 The effect of time at large on the contract price.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Damages for late completion.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Liquidated and general damages distinguished.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Principles of general damages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 Alternative remedies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.4 Can general damages exceed liquidated damages?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.5 Under-liquidation of damages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.6 Double damages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.7 Liability for damages in tort.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.8 The Panatown problem.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Liquidated damages and penalties.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.1 Penalties – general introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.2 Liquidated damages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.3 Liquidated damages and penalties distinguished.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.4 Pre-estimates of damage.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.5 Particular aspects of penalty clauses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.6 Evidential matters.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.7 Bonus clauses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.8 Site occupation charges.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Prevention.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.1 Principle of prevention.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.2 Need for extension of time provisions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.3 Defining an act of prevention.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.4 Prevention after the completion date.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.5 Effect of late variations on unliquidated damages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.6 Prevention and time at large.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.7 Conditions precedent and time-bars.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.8 Steria v.
