ICE Conditions of Contract for Ground Investigation, 2nd edition [38887]

~~£25.00~~ £22.50

Like the measurement version of the ICE Condition of Contract, the Ground Investigation Version is based on the traditional pattern of an investigation designed by a Engineer and carried out by a Specialist Contractor. These Conditions are intended for the situation where the Employer wishes to develop a site and has geotechnical specialists to advise him and who will carry out any initial desk study, identify the geotechnical requirements of the project and design a ground investigation to suit those requirements. The Investigation may include all or some of the following: Site operations including drilling, digging pits, surveys etc. Ancillary Works, being permanent items left behind, e.g. piezometers. Laboratory Testing Reporting requirements. The extent of these will vary depending on the needs of individual projects and whether the purpose is for feasibility study of a full design investigation. This new edition maintains the concepts set down in the first edition, published in 1983, but puts them in a more modern context with some additions and amendments resulting from experience and modern practice. Changes since the first edition include: Improved clarity of language, as for the family of ICE contractors. Provision for a Ground Specialist to act as Engineer (Clause 2(2)). Provisions regarding sub-contractors (Clause 4). Requirements for supply of site information by the Employer (Clause 11). A procedure for dealing with unforeseen contamination (Clause 12A). A provision for repeating defective work (Clause 49(4)). A provision for dealing with Contractor proposed variations (Clauses 51(3) and 52(2)). Amended retention money clauses (Clause 60(5) and (6)).
