Sub-contracting is a necessary and important part of the construction industry. While sub-contracts are entered into ever so often, there remains a dearth of local legal literature on the issues arising in sub-contracts. Standard Form of Sub-Contracts - An Annotation will fill this lacuna.

The Articles and Conditions of Building Contract published by the Singapore Institute of Architects (SIA) standard form is widely used in the private sector on a variety of traditionally procured and successfully completed projects.

The materials for this book were developed from firstly the perspectives of a project manager who is tasked with the management of projects placed on the design and build model and secondly the observations of advisors and consultants who have to consider the common issues presented by the Contract in arbitration and adjudication. The book includes a review of the principles arising from the design and build model and a chronology of the development of this construction procurement model in Singapore.

The author of this work seeks to inform the users of the standard form of their respective contractual position with regard to each and every clause. First published in 2000, the work served as an effective guide in offering readers a comprehensive and perceptive understanding of the Public Sector Standard Conditions of Contract for Construction Works (PSSCOC).
