Construction Law (LAW 63804)

This subject provides me an understanding of the principles of the construction law and it’s application to different situations. This subject allows me to have more understanding on the general principles on the formation of a contract and remedies in the event of breach. Besides, studying this subject able me to have more understanding on the roles and liabilities of the architects, quantity surveyors as well as other professionals in relation to the professional negligence and the use of collateral contract. I find that the most important learning and I’ve receive by studying this subject, is the appreciation of laws relating to payments, contractual claims and the interpretation of rules of ambiguity found in the documents. I think this is important because it’s the root of maintain the process of a construction projects. Other than that, I’ve also learner to appreciate the principles and the procedures of litigation, arbitration, adjudication as well as alternative dispute resolution (ADR) as stated by the Malaysian Government and Standard Form of Contract.

Assignment designed of for this module is relating to FIDIC. I think this is very interesting as it will help my career if I want to start my career oversea. The assignment is derived from a 2 days FIDIC workshop which is hosted by Eugenie Lip, director of Davis Langdon KPK in Singapore. Other than that, Mr Wong also designed this module with another one assignment while based on the chapters that he taught in class.
