Law in Practice by John Wevill Pdf

Intensely practical and clearly written, Law in Practice: the RIBA Legal Handbook is the RIBA’s jargon-free, professional guide to the law as it relates to a construction project. It addresses all the fundamental, up-to-date issues of contemporary construction law, allowing architects to make sound judgements, avoid disputes, and run projects on a safer basis. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect the new RIBA Plan of Work 2013 – the industry’s framework for construction projects – as well as recent case law and other legal updates that the practising architect needs to be aware of. Why does an appointment need to be written? Why does language matter? What is a novation? What does an overall cap on liability mean, and how can you convince a client to agree one? How do you assess an extension of time? When should you notify your insurer of a potential claim? Law in Practice answers all of these questions and many more.

Architect's Legal Handbook by Anthony Speaight,Matthew Thorne Pdf

The Architect's Legal Handbook is the most widely used reference on the law for practicing architects and the established textbook on law for architectural students. Since the last edition of this book in 2010, the legal landscape in which architecture is practised has changed significantly: the long-standing procurement model with an architect as contract administrator has been challenged by the growing popularity of design and build contracts, contract notices in place of certificates, and novation of architect's duties. The tenth edition features all the latest developments in the law which affect an architect's work, as well as providing comprehensive coverage of relevant UK law topics. Key highlights of this edition include: an overview of the legal environment, including contract, tort, and land law; analysis of the statutory framework, including planning law, health and safety, construction legislation, and building regulations in the post-Grenfell legal landscape; procurement and the major industry construction contract forms; building dispute resolution, including litigation, arbitration, adjudication, and mediation; key fields for the architect in practice, including architects' registration and professional conduct, contracts with clients and collateral warranties, liability in negligence, and insurance; entirely new chapters on various standard form contracts, architects' responsibility for the work of others, disciplinary proceedings, and data protection; tables of cases, legislation, statutes, and statutory instruments give a full overview of references cited in the text. The Architect's Legal Handbook is the essential legal reference work for all architects and students of architecture.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1889 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XV. 116.--Dilapidations--Voluntary And Permissive Waste. 117.--Liability of tenants for life. 118.--Liability of tenants for years. 119.--Accidental fire. 120.--Covenants to repair. 121.--Measure of damages. 122.--The right to light. 123.--The right to prospect. 124.--Party walls. We have had grave doubts as to the advisability of offering any remarks on the three subjects noticed in the following chapter: --Dilapidations, Ancient Lights, and Party Walls. We have been assured that questions on one or other of these points frequently occur, and that consequently a few remarks on them would be of service to Architects. That such questions do constantly arise we feel sure, but we are not so sure that we can in the space of the present work impart to our readers any profitable knowledge on the subject. It was necessary for the comprehension of the special subject treated in this little work that we should first endeavour to impart to our readers some instruction in the elementary principles of contracts generally; but that instruction would hardly fit them for the comprehension of the three subjects above-mentioned; and, indeed, to properly introduce them a separate treatise would be necessary in order to effect any good practical purpose. On the other hand, such a book would of necessity be of too technical a character for the ordinary unprofessional reader. However, as we are assured that a few remarks would be acceptable, we offer the following, which we have endeavoured to make as general as possible, for what they may be worth. Those on dilapidations we have taken from Smith's 'Landlord and Tenant, ' and for those on ancient rights and party walls we are mainly indebted to 'Gale on Easements.' n6.--The technical term for.

The Architect in Practice by David Chappell,Michael H. Dunn Pdf

Throughout its many editions, The Architect in Practice has remained a leading textbook used in the education of architects. While the content of the book has developed, the message and philosophy has remained constant: to provide students of architecture and young practitioners with a readable guide to the profession, outlining an architect's duties to their client and contractor, the key aspects of running a building contract, and the essentials of management, finance and drawing office procedure. The eleventh edition follows in that tradition. The text has been brought up to date to ensure it follows the new RIBA Plan of Work 2013 as the guide to the architect’s workflow. In addition, a number of changes to standard forms of contract were made with the publication of the JCT 2011 suite of contracts, and the RIBA Standard Form for the Appointment of an Architect 2010 (2012 Revision). These new forms are fully covered. In addition, the opportunity has been taken to reorganise the layout so that the content flows in a way that is more consistent with current architectural practice, and to deal with the increasing use of BIM. The eleventh edition of The Architect in Practice continues to provide the guidance and advice all students and practising architects need in the course of their studies and in their profession.
