Abstract:

O presente trabalho analisa a qualificação do tipo social do contrato de EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) na ordem jurídica brasileira em face do tipo legal do contrato de empreitada. Investiga-se, portanto, a existência de identidade ou diferença entre ambos os tipos a fim de que se possa dar ao EPC a devida qualificação jurídica. Para isso, no Capítulo I, são apresentados os caracteres gerais dos contratos de construção, com foco na delimitação do espaço normativo específico ocupado pelo contrato de empreitada. No Capítulo II, apresenta-se o Contrato de EPC. São delineadas sua

Abstract:

The construction contract is a document which governs the business relationship of Contractor and Employer for the duration of a construction project. However, the selection of the contract type for the project tends to be performed too shallowly. The present thesis aims to analyse how the contract type is chosen among the three paradigmatic contracts considered here: lump-sum contracts, target-cost contracts and cost-plus contracts. The basis of the study is a case study performed on Project X, a large mine construction project in Western Europe. The relevant literature to the subject was rev

Abstract:

The concept of the Professional Construction Engineer has emerged and developed over the past decade in response to pressures for construction capacity within the Australian Industry. Prior to that time, few contractors employed professional Engineers. The profession has evolved in response to the need for staff competent to handle compressed contract periods and technically difficult administration procedures. Contractors today enter into contracts requiring faster, more economical project completions. Indeed, to remain competitive, contractors and clients are continually developing co

Abstract:

This study investigates the behavior of contractors when submitting bids under different institutional arrangements. Construction projects under the private and public sectors in Hong Kong operate under two distinct contractual and bidding arrangements giving different degrees of risk and uncertainty to the contractors. First, private sector projects in Hong Kong invariably adopt conditions of contracts that shift more risk to the contractor. A typical example is private sector projects do not normally allow fluctuation adjustments, thereby shifting the risks of future increase in prices of co

Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to consider whether the institutionalist hypothesis that the choice of organisational form functions to limit the transaction costs of organising productive activities explains a major standard-form contract which is used in building production. I approach this task by demarcating three models of contract which represent different points along a "contracting continuum". Each of the three governance structures - classical contract, relational contracting and the firm - represents a distinct patterning of resource co-ordination and each generates its own configura

Abstract:

Byggindustrin är idag en av Sveriges största industrier med en omsättning som under 2012 uppgick till hela 309 miljarder kronor. Studier har dock visat att cirka 35% av den totala kostnaden vid ett byggprojekt är vad som i andra industrier betraktas som slöseri. I detta innefattas aktiviteter som materialhantering, höga lagernivåer och onödiga väntetider. För att förbättra sin logistik kan byggentreprenörer välja att lägga ut vissa aktiviteter på en tredjepartslogistiker.

Abstract:

Although the client's objectives of balancing cost, time and performance have not changed, the complexity of the design and construction of modern buildings today requires a thorough understanding of the factors affecting these objectives if they are to be accomplished. This study therefore begins by analysing the client's objectives to establish the factors affecting each objective and to determine the inter-relationship and possible conflict between these factors. The principal types of contracts and methods of selecting a contractor are then identified. The methods of selecting a contractor

Abstract:

Contracts capture an agreement between two parties to exchange a resource in the future (ex-ante), however the future is not certain. Only after the event has happened, might the two parties compare the resources they have received to what they expected (ex-post). Entering into a contract with unknowns gives rise to incomplete contracts theory, the focus of which includes the study of human behavior. Relational contracting is currently being studied as a method of reducing the transaction costs and incompleteness of contracts. Using case studies, this research aimed to reach a conclusion rega

Blockchain technology with its distributed ledgers attracts massive attention today and creates interest in many different industries.
