The Joint Contracts Tribunal issued a new Design and Build Form in 2005, a successor to the JCT Standard Form of Building Contract with Contractor’s Design. It looks substantially different from its predecessor and it is different in structure and often in its wording.

It discusses areas where problems frequently arise:

• the allocation of design responsibility
• discrepancies
• the role of the employer’s agent
• payment provisions
• the approval of drawings
