FIDIC Contracts: Law and Practice provides legal commentary, detailed clause-by-clause analysis and relevant case law for each of the different FIDIC forms. It is the only book to date which deals with the whole suite of contracts, including the new gold book for design, build and operate projects.

Authored by White & Case lawyers Ellis Baker, Ben Mellors, Scott Chalmers and Anthony Lavers, FIDIC Contracts: Law and Practice published by Informa, is sure to become the leading industry standard guide to using the FIDIC forms.

"This is the first time that all five of the FIDIC forms have been considered together in a single source, which we believe makes this book a very interesting and valuable development for all those who operate within the international construction and engineering industry," commented Ellis Baker, lead author and head of White & Case's Construction and Engineering practice in London. “By adopting an issues based approach we have sought to provide a commentary on the full range of options offered by the respective forms.”

The author team has extensive experience in international project development and construction disputes across a wide range of industry sectors including power, nuclear, oil and gas, metals and mining, process plants, water, commercial property and transport infrastructure.

The Federation International des Ingénieurs - Conseils (FIDIC) is the leading body for the development of model standard forms of contract for use in the international construction industry. The FIDIC suite of contracts are generally accepted by employers and contractors as providing a recognisable common basis of agreement for defining the conditions of contract for the construction industry worldwide.

FIDIC Contracts: Law and Practice will be suitable for lawyers practising in international procurement and dispute resolution but also for engineers, project managers, quantity surveyors, architects and contractors.
