Bridging the gap between the theory and practice of construction lawThe Building and Construction Law Journal tracks changes in construction law and comments on them nationally and internationally. It is the perfect way to stay up to date and in touch for construction lawyers and also for other professionals in the fields of construction, construction, engineering and related industries. This volume is one of four in a constantly updated series of legal cases relevant to the construction industry, reporting on the latest important cases and relevant cases from the past that have not been mentioned in previous publications. Now in its 13th year, this series is widely recognized as an authoritative reference source for anyone with a professional interest in the subject. It contains comprehensive judgments on the main English and Commonwealth cases on construction contracts and appeals of arbitration proceedings relating to construction contracts, as well as relevant editorial comments. This journal informs readers about important legislative changes and offers debates and analyses on construction claims, disputes, contracts and court decisions. Each issue of the journal deals with basic topics as well as specially specified multi-jurisdictional reports on construction law. Online, the journal provides the full version of Volume 1, 1985, with links to judgments and other online publications, while individual articles can be downloaded in PDF format or received via an RSS feed. Approximately six parts and one bound volume are published each year (receipt of exhibits and/or bound volumes depends on your choice of subscription).

Attention: Only bound volumes printed from the United States Reports contain the final and official opinions of the Supreme Court of the United States. In the event of any discrepancy between a bound volume and the documents contained in this document – or any other version of the same material, whether printed or electronic, official or unofficial – the printed bound volume will be checked.
Bound volumes: The bound volumes of U.S. reports are the latest generation of the Court`s expert opinions. See information on opinions. The bound volumes of the U.S. reports gathered here contain the full text of volumes 502 et seq., from cover to index, including all opinions, decisions and other documents issued for the Court`s mandate in 1991 and subsequent years. Other volumes will be published here after their publication. Preprints: Each bound volume of U.S. reports is preceded by “preliminary prints,” which are brown, flexible “preprint brochures” that contain the same documents and features as U.S. reports. See information on opinions. The content of two or three forms is eventually combined into a single bound volume. Thus, the title of each form contains a part number, for example, form, volume 577, part 1.
