Abstract

There are many terms used in the construction industry which do not have universally agreed meanings, and this is particularly true in relation to Design-Build. Most such terms are described fully in the body of the book, but in an endeavour to avoid confusion at the outset this glossary has been included to describe the meaning which the author has ascribed to the terms.

Be sure that you go to the Author to get at his meaning, not find yours.

Ruskin [Sesame and Lilies]
