Demystify complicated construction claims with this indispensable guide

Given how common complex claims have become in the modern built environment, Fundamentals of Construction Claims: A 9-Step Guide for General Contractors, Subcontractors, Architects and Engineers is an absolutely critical addition to the library of any construction professional.

The author's straightforward 9-Step method helps readers avoid costly dispute resolution fees by:

Explaining entitlement requirements for various types of claims, including differing site conditions, added scope, and weather delays
Offering procedures for calculating delay impacts through forensic scheduling analysis
Defining, in detail, four simple ways to prove damages
