NEC4: Practical Solutions
NEC4 Practical Solutions is an invaluable guide to the NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract in particular, providing a range of concise practical solutions for practitioners using NEC4 contracts.
With a focus on implementing good practice, this accessible guide will help the reader to avoid common project pitfalls, and to implement best practice, ensuring the delivery of successful, effective and efficient projects. The authors are both NEC consultants and part of the NEC4 drafting team. They have been actively involved in writing NEC documents for around 20 years and have extensive practical experience handling queries received by the NEC Users’ Group Helpdesk.
The book follows the same structure as the ECC contract, and uses a question and answer format for ease of reference. Each chapter also includes further thoughts and top tips. The book provides readers with a helpful problem-solving tool, and a compendium of hints, tips and answers to queries and problems that are likely to be posed about the NEC4 suite of contracts.
NEC4 Practical Solutions is an ideal companion for both experienced professionals and early career practitioners. It will be essential reading for engineers, surveyors, architects, project managers, supervisors, consultants, contractors, subcontractors, and anyone else working with, or interested in working successfully with, the NEC4 suite of contracts.
