Differing Site Condition Claims on Projects with a Geotechnical Baseline Reports

Rate this book
Learn to Determine If a Differing Site Condition Claim Exists, If the Claim Is Valid, and How It Should Be Handled On Projects with GBRs!

The risk of differing site conditions is, arguably, the single most impactful risk which must be allocated on subsurface construction projects. To accomplish this, contracts often include a series of terms which effect the transfer or sharing of risk amongst the parties. On tunnels, and increasingly on other horizontal construction projects, Geotechnical Baseline Reports (GBR) plays a critical role.

The use of a GBR does not negate a differing site condition claim. In fact, increasingly GBRs are critical components of differing site condition claims. Unfortunately, many differing site condition claims on projects with GBRs are not publicly known because of private dispute resolution procedures often required on large underground construction projects.

This Informative DVD by our expert speaker, Zach Jones, addresses how contractors, engineers, and owners on projects with a GBR should determine if a differing site condition claim exists, if the claim is valid, and how it should be handled.
