Clause 19 deals with two distinct events: (1) Force Majeure; and (2) release from performance under the law. Force Majeure is often narrowly defined under the laws of many countries; however, within the FIDIC 1999 forms of contract it has a much broader meaning. The terminology used by FIDIC has therefore sometimes been criticized as being misleading.
We are a leading construction law company specialising in the avoidance and resolution of international construction and engineering disputes, with particular expertise in the FIDIC forms of contract.
Founded and run by Corbett & Co., Cornerstone Seminars addresses the FIDIC international standard forms of contracts.
