The increase in magnitude and complexity of construction
projects and the broadening of contractors’ activities in new

increased the potential for claims in the construction industry.
Furthermore, the special nature and magnitude of construction
projects extending over a period of time with potential of changed
conditions due to economic, legislative and regulatory policies are
all factors that increase the probability of claims and disputes.
This is due to the inability to accurately predict and account for all
of these factors during the tendering phase, which may have a
negative impact on the management, implementation, and
contractual obligations of the parties to the contract during the
construction phase. In light of these difficulties, construction
projects are prone to many risks, consequently, to the rise of
claims which are often controversial, and lead to the disruption of
projects. Accordingly, Standard International Contract forms are

evaluating and managing; the subject of claims in construction
