Celebrating 50 years since it was first published, the Architect's Legal Handbook has been the most widely used reference on the law for practicing architects, and the established textbook on law for architectural students.
Since the last edition of this book in 2021, unprecedented change has occurred in the construction sector. The withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union has ushered in changes to legislation in a wide range of areas. The tragic fire at Grenfell Tower in June 2017, and the deficiencies in design, construction and regulation within the sector that were revealed as a result, have given rise to major changes in the way projects are now carried out. An overhaul of the Building Regulations and the creation of a new Building Safety Regulator are only some of the ways in which the landscape has changed.
This eleventh edition features all the latest developments in the law which affect an architect's work, as well as providing comprehensive coverage of relevant UK law topics. Key highlights of this edition include:
A new chapter has been added to cover the statutory framework for building safety (Chapter 9), which is complemented by a wholly updated chapter on construction regulation in England and Wales (Chapter 10).
The chapter on public procurement law (Chapter 14) has also been entirely re-written to focus on the Public Procurement Act 2023 and related regulations, following Brexit.
New suites of standard contract forms have, since the last edition, been issued. These have seen substantial changes with chapters on JCT 2024 (Chapter 18) and the latest NEC4 forms (Chapter 19), together with wider updates to the chapters on FIDIC (Chapter 20) and other forms of contract (Chapter 21).
A revised chapter on architects’ contracts with clients covering the RIBA Professional Services Contract 2024 (chapter 37).
A new section on novations in the chapter on the English Law of Contract (chapter 2).
The Architect’s Legal Handbook is the essential legal reference work for all architects and students of architecture.
