"Preparing Specifications for Design-Bid Build Projects is a guide for improving written specifications in construction contract documents. One of the major concerns voiced by construction professionals, engineers and contractors working on design-bid build projects is poorly written specifications that lead to inconsistent interpretation and require correction of faulty work, which is costly, time consuming, and demoralizing." "Developed by the Committee on Specifications of the Construction Division of ASCE, Preparing Specifications for Design-Bid Build Projects contains detailed instructions on how to write, format, and issue contract documents. Typical wording problems, definitions, use of codes and standards, a sample specification, and a checklist are all provided to simplify and improve the writing process. Also outlined are procedures explaining how to: interact with the client and the engineer, approach disputes, and employ better wording to reduce claims." "The information contained in Preparing Specifications for Design-Bid Build Projects is straightforward and practical. By devoting ten years of questionnaires, papers, articles, and symposia to construction contract specifications, committee members who specialize in the preparation of such documents, are able to provide comprehensive solutions to widespread problems."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

For the past 25 years, Joe Goldbloom and I have conducted a running debate over whether specifications writers engage in the unlawful practice of law. Joe's position is that lawyers have no business writing specifications, that being the designer's province. Having been given the honor to write this foreword, I have the opportunity for the last word, at least for now. Joe Goldbloom and I first met in 1964, while serving together on the ASCE Committee on Contract Administration. Joe became my teacher, mentor, and friend. Underlying our good natured debate was the serious issue of the technical qualifications required of a specifications writer. As a matter of fact, specifi cations writing traditionally has fallen in a crack between the two professions. Specifications writing typically is neither taught in engineering school nor in law school. Engineers are taught how to design; lawyers are taught how to draft contracts. Specifications writing requires mastery of the technical elements of design as well as the skills of contract drafting. Specifications writing is neither glamorous nor sexy; it is often viewed as a necessary evil of the designer's job.
