Provides a standard form of general conditions of contract for incorporation into construction contract documents. This standard is similar to NZS 3910:2013, but has been adapted to provide for the situation where the Contractor is responsible for design as well as construction. It enables the Principals, Engineers and Contractors to quickly establish contractual arrangements that deliver a wide variety of building and civil engineering projects. Contracts based on this standard will be comprehensive but at the same time easy to understand and will reflect fair risk allocation between the parties. It contains essential commercial provisions aligned with the requirements of the Construction Contracts Act 2002. This new standard was developed following a ‘limited technical review’ of NZS 3910:2003, which focused only on feedback from the construction sector, and resulted in clearer wording and a reduced need for extensive special conditions. It includes Word form schedules that may be completed with project specific details.
