* FIDIC Contracts in Asia Pacific: A Practical Guide to Application 2nd ed

NOT YET PUBLISHED

FIDIC contracts are the most widely used contracts for international construction around the world and are used in many different jurisdictions, both common law and civil law.

For any construction project, the General Conditions of Contract published by FIDIC need to be supplemented by Particular Conditions that specify the specific requirements of that project subject to the relevant laws. FIDIC Contracts in Asia Pacific, 2nd edition, provides readers with detailed guidance and resources for the preparation of the Particular Conditions that will comply with the requirements of the applicable laws for a number of the jurisdictions in which FIDIC contracts are used. The laws that apply to the governing law of the contract, construction works and dispute resolution in each jurisdiction are identified. The book offers chapters on the FIDIC Conditions of Contract for Underground Works, and the perspective of a bilateral aid agency on the use of FIDIC contracts, then presents a chapter dedicated to each of 18 different jurisdictions within the region – adding Mongolia, New Zealand and Thailand to those covered by the 1st edition – and also provides new content on issues, specific to each jurisdiction, that will be important to participants in construction projects.

This book is essential reading for construction professionals, lawyers and students of construction law using FIDIC contracts.
