The 澳门六合彩开奖预测 annual convention included a session entitled 鈥淲ho鈥檚 on the Hook for Design Defects in Design-Build Projects.鈥 Fox Rothschild鈥檚 Dirk Haire, Les Synder of Infrastructure Construction Brightline West, and David Hecker of Kiewit presented. Attendees crowded into a standing-only room because more and more builders are facing design liability, especially design-builders on large infrastructure projects. The presentation highlighted how some owners abuse the submittal process on design-build jobs to make changes without compensating the builder with more time, money, or both. One project took a sample of owner comments and extrapolated that just one project generated over 15,000 submittals and generated over 110,000 comments of 鈥渃oncern鈥 or 鈥減reference.鈥
