Construction Nightmares: Jobs from Hell and How to Avoid Them, Third Edition Arthur F. O'Leary, FAIA, MRIAI, a 40-year construction project veteran, relates actual jobs gone bad from the world of construction, dealing with plans, extras, delays, interference, scheduling, change orders, defective construction, inadequate supervision, incompetent contractors and just about every other problem that could happen on a construction job. After you find out what went wrong and how it went wrong, you get a clear legal analysis explaining the tools and procedures to use to untangle the mess. For example, you'll see how to use mechanic's liens to your advantage, the proper way to use a bonding company, insurance coverage checks, contract preparation and negotiation strategies and much more. Packed with real-life case examples describing nightmares like these:
If you'd rather learn from the bad experiences of others rather than suffer the pain yourself, consider this book as guide through a small glimpse of construction hell. Hopefully, by reading this book and learning, a place you never have to visit. 462 pp. |
