A classic construction law text, Keating on Construction Contracts is a first port of call for all research on the history and principles governing building contracts, their practical application and their interpretation by the courts. Renowned for its accessible style, and reliable authority the title covers all relevant legislation and case law, EC law, and the FIDIC, NEC3, JCT Forms of Contracts and ICE Conditions of Contract.

The book offers solicitors, barristers and construction professionals detailed and authoritative commentary on all issues relating to construction contracts and presents in depth practical help in a concise style, discussing legal principles, analysing judicial decisions, interrogating standard forms and interpreting legislation.

The second supplement to the 11th edition updates the book with recent cases and legislation, including:

  • Covers changes to the law on Public Procurement
  • A full commentary on the major changes introduced by the Building Safety Act
  • The decision on recovery of liquidated damages in Triple Point Technology v PTT on the recovery of liquidated damages in termination cases;
  • Times Travel v Pakistan International Airlines on economic duress;
  • Khan v Meadows on scope of duty of care and Tinkler v Revenue and Custom Commissioners on estoppel by convention.
  • Court of Appeal decisions on such matters as whether a collateral contract may be a “construction contract” for the purposes of the HGCRA, credit against damages for gains made by an innocent party, assessing damages in the light of subsequent events, proving cases by sampling and extrapolation, acceptance of expert evidence and recoverability of mediation costs.
