Fidic Users' Guide: A Practical Guide to the Red, Yellow, Mdb Harmonised and Subcontract Books

By B. Barr

FIDIC Users' Guide: A practical guide to the Red, Yellow, MDB Harmonised and Subcontract Books focuses on the practical administration of the Federation Internationale des Ingenieurs-Conseils (FIDIC) Conditions of Contract for Construction and the Conditions of Contract for Plant & Design-Build, a revised family of Conditions of Contract published in 1999 to address the increasing size and complexity of construction projects.

Brian Barr and Leo Grutters have comprehensively updated Brian Totterdill's previous edition, taking into account newly published forms of contract, case studies, and FIDIC's expansion into a more international arena. The book recognises the growing tendency for projects to be administered by local employers, consultants and contractors as well as by experienced international organisations. Thus, the new edition of the FIDIC Users' Guide aims improve working relationships between all contract parties.
