Content DescriptionThe responsibilities of each party in a concrete construction project should be adequately described in the contracts between the parties, including the responsibility for the owner’s project objectives. The party controlling that process (usually the owner or the owner’s representative) must ensure that the responsibilities of the parties are clear, coordinated, and consistent. Clarity and consistency in the responsibilities defined in the contracts will reduce friction in executing a construction project and reduce the incidence of legal disputes. This guide identifies and suggests the allocation of responsibilities to various parties involved in concrete construction in the United States; however, the guidance presented may be applicable to contractual relationships addressing concrete construction in other parts of the world. This guide can also be useful in assessing existing contractual documents to determine if they are adequate and balanced with respect to the responsibilities associated with concrete construction. The responsibilities outlined in this guide, where not required by law, may be modified by contract language or engineer of record (EOR) specification. Keywords: concrete construction; contracts; owner; responsibility.About ACIFounded in 1904 and headquartered in Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA, the American Concrete Institute is a leading authority and resource worldwide for the development and distribution of consensus-based standards, technical resources, educational & training programs, certification programs, and proven expertise for individuals and organizations involved in concrete design, construction, and materials, who share a commitment to pursuing the best use of concrete.
