                            FOREWORD
The terms of the Conditions of Contract for Design-Build and Turnkey have been prepared by the
F¨¦d¨¦ration Internationale des Ing¨¦nieurs-Conseils (FIDIC) and are recommended for general use for the purpose of the design and construction of works where tenders are invited on an international basis; with minor modifications, the Conditions are also suitable for use on domestic contracts. There are no universally-accepted definitions of the termsdesign-build andturnkey, except that both involve the Contractors total liability for design. For the Employer, such single-point responsibility may be advantageous, but the benefits may be offset by having less control over the design process and more difficulty in imposing varied requirements.
Under the usual arrangements for a design-build contract, the Contractor is responsible for the design and provision, in accordance with the Employers requirements, of works which may include any combination of engineering (including civil, mechanical, electrical, etc) and building works; and interim payments are made as construction proceeds. In Part I, Clause 13 sets out the payment arrangements.
The Conditions are also intended for use on turnkey contracts, under which the Employers requirements usually include provision of a fully-equipped facility, ready for operation (at the turn of thekey); such contracts are often contractor-financed. Turnkey contracts typically include design, construction, fixtures, fittings and equipment, the scope of which would be defined in other contract documents. In addition, the contract may impose a requirement for the Contractor to operate the Works, either for a few months' commissioning period, or for some years operation on a build-operate-transfer contract. Advice on turnkey arrangements is included in Part II, together with sample wording for contractor-finance.
The version in English of the Conditions is considered by FIDIC as the official and authentic text for the purposes of translation.
In the preparation of the Conditions it was recognised that, while there are many sub-clauses which will be generally applicable, there are some sub-clauses which must necessarily vary to take account of the circumstances relevant to the particular contract. The sub-clauses which were considered to be applicable to the majority of contracts have therefore been presented in Part I - General Conditions, which will facilitate their incorporation into the contract. Part I - General Conditions and Part II - Conditions of Particular Application will together comprise the Conditions governing the rights and obligations of the parties. It will be necessary to prepare the Part II for each individual contract, taking particular account of the references to Part II which are contained in some sub-clauses in Part I. In order to assist in the preparation of Part II and the other tender documents, explanatory material and example wording are published with these Conditions in the Guidance for the Preparation of Conditions of Particular Application. More detailed guidance will be included in a guide to the use of these conditions, to be published by early 1996.

The Contractor shall then promptly make good the defect and ensure that the rejected item complies with the Contract.
If the Employer’s Representative requires such Plant, Materials, design or workmanship to be retested, the tests shall be repeated under the same terms and conditions. If such rejection and retesting cause the Employer to incur additional costs, such costs shall be recoverable from the Contractor by the Employer, and may be deducted by the Employer from any monies due, or to become due, to the Contractor.

在工程或每一区段（如有时）的竣工时间内，整个工程以及每一区段（视情况而定）应完工并通过竣工检验。
 
Extension of Time for Completion竣工时间的延长
8.3 The Contractor may apply for an extension of the Time for Completion if he is or will be delayed either before or after the Time for Completion by any of the following causes:
(a) a Variation (unless an adjustment to the Time for Completion is agreed under Sub-Clause 14.3),
(b) a force majeure event (as defined in Sub-Clause 19.1),
(c) a cause of delay giving an entitlement to extension of time under a Sub- Clause of these Conditions, unless the Contractor has not complied with such Sub-Clause, (d) physical conditions or circumstances on the Site, which are exceptionally adverse and were not (by the Base Date) foreseeable by an experienced contractor, or
(e) any delay, impediment or prevention by the Employer.
If the Contractor intends to apply for an extension of the Time for Completion, the Contractor shall give notice to the Employer’s Representative of such intention as soon as possible and in any event within 28 days of the start of the event giving rise to the delay, together with any other notice required by the Contract and relevant to such cause. The Contractor shall keep such contemporary records as may be necessary to substantiate any application, either on the Site or at another location acceptable to the Employer’s Representative, and such other records as may reasonably be requested by the Employer’s Representative. The Contractor shall permit the Employer’s Representative to inspect all such records, and shall provide the Employer’s Representative with copies as required. Within 28 days of the first day of such delay (or such other period as may be agreed by the Employer’s Representative), the Contractor shall submit full supporting details of his application. Except that, if the Contractor cannot submit all relevant details within such period because the cause of delay continued for a period exceeding 7 days, the Contractor shall submit interim details at intervals of not more than 28 days (from the first day of such delay) and full and final supporting details of his application within 21 days of the last day of delay.
The Employer’s Representative shall proceed in accordance with Sub- Clause 3.5 to agree or determine either prospectively or retrospectively such extension of the Time for Completion as may be due. The Employer’s Representative shall notify the Contractor accordingly. When determining each extension of time, the Employer’s Representative shall review his previous determinations and may revise, but shall not decrease, the total extension of time.
如果由于下述任何原因致使承包商在竣工时间之前或之后延误工程，承包商可申请延长竣工时间：
    （a）一项变更（如果未根据第14.3款商定对竣工时间加以调整）；
    （b）不可抗力事件（如第19.1款所定义）；
    （c）导致承包商根据本合同条件的某条款有权获得延期的延误原因；除非承包商未能遵守该条款；
    （d）现场的自然条件或环境异常恶劣，并且一个有经验的承包商在基准日期前对此无法预见；
    （e）由雇主造成的任何延误、干扰或阻碍。
    如果承包商准备申请延长竣工时间，他应尽快将该意图通知雇主代表，并在任何情况下应于引起延误事件开始之后的28天以内发出通知，同时附上合同要求的以及与此类原因相关的任何其他通知。承包商应在现场或雇主代表接受的其他地点，保持证明其延期申请所需的同期记录，以及雇主代表可能合理要求的其他记录。承包商应允许雇主代表检查所有此类记录，并应提供雇主代表要求的各类副本。
    从此类延误的第一天起的28天内（或雇主代表可能同意的其他期限内），承包商应提交其延期申请的全部详细证明材料。此外，如果由于引起延误的原因持续超过7天致使承包商未能在上述时间内提交所有相关细节，他应在不超过28天（从此类延误的第一天算起）的期间内提交其中详情，并在引起延误的最后一天之后的21天内提交延期申请的全部和最终的证明材料。
    雇主代表应根据第3.5款去商定或确定应给予的预期的或追补的竣工时间的延长。雇主代表应相应地通知承包商。当确定每一延期时间时，雇主代表应复查以前的决定并可修改（但不应减少）整个延期时间。
 
Delays Caused by Authorities由公共当局引起的延误
8.4 If the following conditions apply, namely: 如果下列条件成立：
(a) the Contractor has diligently followed the procedures laid down by the
relevant legally constituted public authorities in the Country,
(b) such authorities delay, impede or prevent the Contractor, and
(c) the resulting delay to the Works was not (by the Base Date) foreseeable by
an experienced contractor,
then such delay will be considered as a cause of delay giving an entitlement to
extension of time under Sub-Clause 8.3.
 （a）承包商已努力遵守了工程所在国有关合法公共当局制定的程序；
    （b）公共当局延误、干扰或阻碍承包商；
    （c）对工程造成的延误是一个有经验的承包商在基准日期前无法预见的；
    则此类延误应被视为是根据第8.3款有权获准延期的延误原因引起的。
 
Rate of Progress进展速度
8.5 If, at any time, the Contractor’s actual progress falls behind the programme referred to in Sub-Clause 4.14, or it becomes apparent that it will so fall behind, the Contractor shall submit to the Employer’s Representative a revised programme taking into account the prevailing circumstances. The Contractor shall, at the same time, notify the Employer’s Representative of the steps being taken to expedite progress, so as to achieve completion within the Time for Completion.
If any steps taken by the Contractor in meeting his obligations under this Sub- Clause cause the Employer to incur additional costs, such costs shall be recoverable from the Contractor by the Employer, and may be deducted by the Employer from any monies due, or to become due, to the Contractor.
若在任何时候承包商的实际进度落后于第4.14款所指明的进度计划，或很明显将落后于该进度计划，则承包商应向雇主代表提交一份考虑到当前情况的修订的进度计划。承包商应同时将正在采取的为加快施工进度，以便在竣工时间内完工的步骤通知雇主代表。
    如果承包商为履行本款规定的承包商的义务所采取的任何步骤导致雇主产生附加费用，则此类费用应由雇主从承包商处收回，并可由雇主从任何应支付或将支付给承包商的款项中扣除。
 
Liquidated Damages for Delay误期损害赔偿费
8.6 If the Contractor fails to comply with Sub-Clause 8.2, the Contractor shall pay
to the Employer the relevant sum stated in the Appendix to Tender as liquidated damages for such default (which sum shall be the only monies due from the Contractor for such default) for every day or pun of a day which shall elapse between the relevant Time for Completion and the date stated in the Taking- Over Certificate; except that the total payment shall not exceed the limit of liquidated damages (if any) stated in the Appendix to Tender.
The Employer may, without prejudice to any other method of recovery, deduct the amount of such damages from any monies due, or to become due, to the Contractor. In the event of an extension of time being granted under Sub- Clause 8.3, the amount due under this Sub-Clause shall be recalculated accordingly, and any over-payment refunded. The payment or deduction of such damages shall not relieve the Contractor from his obligation to complete the Works, or from any other of his duties, obligations or responsibilities under the Contract.
At any time after the Employer has become entitled to liquidated damages, the Employer’s Representative may give notice to the Contractor under Sub- Clause 15.1, requiring the Contractor to complete within a specified reasonable time for completion. Such action shall not prejudice the Employer’s entitlements to payment under this Sub-Clause and to terminate under Sub- Clause 15.2.
如果承包商未能遵守第8.2款，承包商应向雇主支付投标书附录中注明的相应金额，作为自相应的竣工时间起至移交证书注明的日期止之间每日或不足二日的违约的损害赔偿费（该笔金额是承包商为此类违约所应支付的唯一款项）；但全部支付款不得超过投标书附录中注明的损害赔偿费（如有时）的限额。
    在不排斥采用其他方法收回该款项的前提下，雇主可以应支付或将支付给承包商的款项中扣除该损害赔偿费的总额。当根据第8.3款予以延期时，根据本款应付的款项须相应地重新计算且任何多扣部分应予返还。此类损害赔偿费的支付或扣除均不得解除承包商完成工程的义务或合同规定其任何其他职责、义务或责任。
    在雇主有权得到误期损害赔偿费之后的任何时间，雇主代表可按第15.1款通知承包商，要求承包商在一规定的合理完工时间内完工。该行动不应影响雇主按本款得到付款的权利以及按第15.2款终止合同的权利。
 
Suspension of Work暂时停工
8.7 The Employer’s Representative may at any time instruct the Contractor to suspend progress of part or all of the Works. During suspension, the Contractor shall protect, store and secure such part or the Works against any deterioration, loss or damage.
雇主代表可随时指示承包商暂停进行部分或全部工程。在暂停期间，承包商应保护、保管以及保障该部分或全部工程免遭任何损蚀、损失或损害。
 
Consequences of Suspension暂停引起的后果
 8.8 If the Contractor suffers delay and/or incurs Cost in following the Employer’s Representative's instructions under Sub-Clause 8.7, and in resumption of the work, and if such delay and/or Cost was not (by the Base Date) foreseeable by an experienced contractor, the Contractor shall give notice to the Employer’s Representative, with a copy to the Employer. After receipt of such notice the Employer’s Representative shall proceed in accordance with Sub-Clause 3.5 to agree or determine:
(a) any extension of time to which the Contractor is entitled under Sub- Clause 8.3, and
(b) the amount of such Cost, which shall be added to the Contract Price, and shall notify the Contractor accordingly. Except that the Contractor shall not be entitled to such extension and payment of Cost if the suspension is due to a cause attributable to the Contractor, or is necessitated by a Contractor's risk as defined in Sub-Clause 17.5.
The Contractor shall not be entitled to extension of time for, or payment of the costs incurred in, making good any deterioration, defect or loss caused by faulty design, workmanship or materials, or by the Contractor’s failure to take the measures specified in Sub-Clause 8.7.
如果承包商在遵守雇主代表根据第8.7款所发出的指示以及在复工时，遭受延误以及（或）招致费用并且若此类延误以及（或）费用（在基准日期之前）是一个有经验的承包商所无法预见的，承包商应通知雇主代表，同时将一份副本提交雇主。在收到此通知后，雇主代表应根据第3.5款商定或决定：
   （a）承包商有权根据第8.3款规定，获得任何延长的工期；
   （b）将有关费用的总额加入合同价格中。
   同时将上述决定相应地通知承包商。但是，如果暂停是由于承包商的原因或由第17.5款所定义的承包商的风险造成的，则承包商将无权得到此类延期和支付的费用。
   如果任何损蚀、缺陷或损失是由于错误的设计、工艺或材料引起的；或由于承包商未能采取第8.7款规定的措施引起的，则承包商无权获得为修复此类损蚀、缺陷或损失所需的延期和招致的费用。
 
Payment for Plant and Materials in Event of Suspension
暂停时工程设备和材料的支付
 
8.9 The Contractor shall be entitled to payment for Plant and/or Materials which have not been delivered to Site, if the work on Plant or delivery of Plant and/or Materials has been suspended for more than 28 days. This entitlement shall be to payment of the value of such Plant and/or Materials as at the date of suspension, if:
(a) the Contractor has marked the Plant and/or Materials as the Employer’s property in accordance with the Employer's Representative’s instructions, and
(b) the suspension is not due to a cause attributable to the Contractor. The Employer shall then, if requested by the Contractor, take over the responsibility for protection, storage, security and insurance of such suspended Plant and/or Materials; the risk of loss or damage to the suspended works shall then pass to the Employer.
如果有关工程设备的制造或工程设备以及（或）材料的运送被暂停超过28天，则承包商有权获得该未被运至现场的工程设备以及（或）材料的支付。承包商有权获得的付款应为该工程设备以及（或）材料在停工日期时的价值。但以下列条件为前提：
   （a）承包商根据雇主代表的指示已将这些工程设备和（或）材料标记为雇主的财产；
   （b）暂时停工不是由于承包商的原因引起的。
   如果承包商要求的话，雇主应随后接管对此类暂停的工程设备以及（或）材料的保护、保管、保障以及保险的责任。暂停的工程损失或损害的风险从此转移给雇主。
 
Prolonged Suspension持续的暂停
8.10 If suspension under Sub-Clause 8.7 has continued for more than 84 days, and
the suspension is not due to a cause attributable to the Contractor, the Contractor may by notice to the Employer’s Representative require permission to proceed within 28 days. If permission is not granted within that time, the Contractor may treat the suspension as an omission under Clause 14 of the affected part of the Works. If such suspension affects the whole of the Works, the Contractor may terminate his employment, under Sub-Clause 16.2.
如果第8.7款所述的暂停已持续84天以上，且此暂停不是由于承包商的原因引起，则承包商可通知雇主代表，要求在28天内同意继续施工。若在上述时间未得到许可，承包商可将此暂停影响到的工程部分视为第14条所述的删减。若此类暂停影响到整个工程，承包商可根据第16.2款终止其受雇。
 
Resumption of Work复工
8.11 After receipt of permission or of an instruction to proceed, the Contractor shall, after notice to the Employer’s Representative, and together with the Employer’s Representative, examine the Works and the Plant and Materials affected by the suspension. The Contractor shall make good any deterioration or defect in or loss of the Works or Plant or Materials, which has occurred during the
suspension. If the Employer has taken over risk and responsibility for the suspended Works under Sub-Clause 8.9, risk and responsibility shall revert to the Contractor 14 days after receipt of the permission or instruction to proceed.
在收到继续工作的许可或指示后，承包商应在通知雇主代表后与雇主代表一起检验受到暂停影响的工程以及工程设备和材料。承包商应修复在暂停期间发生在工程或工程设备或材料中的任何损蚀或缺陷或损失。
   如果雇主根据第8.9款承担了暂停的工程的风险和责任，承包商在收到继续工作的许可或指示后14天，该风险和责任应重新归属承包商。

    若承包商未能在21天内进行竣工检验，雇主代表可自己着手进行此类检验。雇主代表如此进行的所有检验的风险和费用应由承包商承担。此类竣工检验应被视为是承包商在场之情况下进行的且检验结果应被认为是准确的。
 
Retesting重新检验
9.3 If the Works, or a Section, fail to pass the Tests on Completion, Sub-Clause 7.5 shall apply, and the Employer’s Representative or the Contractor may require
such failed Tests, and the Tests on Completion on any related work, to be repeated under the same terms and conditions.
如果工程或某区段未能通过竣工检验，则第7.5款适用，且雇主代表或承包商可要求按相同条款或条件重复进行此类未通过的检验以及对任何相关工作的竣工检验。
 
Failure to Pass Tests on Completion未能通过竣工检验
9.4 If the Works, or a Section, fail to pass the Tests on Completion repeated under Sub-Clause 9.3, the Employer’s Representative shall be entitled to:
(a) order further repetition of Tests on Completion under Sub-Clause 9.3;

10 Employer’s Taking Over雇主的接收
EMPLOYER’S TAKING OVER
Taking-Over Certificate移交证书
10.1 Except as stated in Sub-Clause 9.4, the Works shall be taken over by the Employer when they have been completed in accordance with the Contract (except as described in sub-paragraph (a) below), have passed the Tests on  Completion and a Taking-Over Certificate for the Works has been issued, or has deemed to have been issued in accordance with this Sub-Clause. If the Works are divided into Sections, the Contractor shall be entitled to apply for a Taking-Over Certificate for each Section.
The Contractor may apply by notice to the Employer’s Representative for a Taking-Over Certificate not earlier than 14 days before the Works or Section (as the case may be) will, in the Contractor's opinion, be complete and ready for taking over. The Employer’s Representative shall, within 28 days after the receipt of the Contractor’s application:
(a) issue the Taking-Over Certificate to the Contractor, stating the date on which the Works or Section were completed in accordance with the Contract (except for minor outstanding work that does not affect the use of the Works or Section for their intended purpose) including passing the Tests on Completion; or
(b) reject the application, giving his reasons and specifying the work required
to be done by the Contractor to enable the Taking-Over Certificate to be issued: the Contractor shall then complete such work before issuing a further notice under this Sub-Clause.
If the Employer’s Representative fails either to issue the Taking-Over Certificate or to reject the Contractor’s application within the period of 28 days, and if the Works or Section (as the case may be) are substantially in accordance with the Contract, the Taking-Over Certificate shall be deemed to have been issued on the last day of that period.
除第9.4款所述情况外，当工程根据合同已竣工（下面（a）段所述情况除外）并已通过了竣工检验，且根据本款已颁发或认为已颁发工程移交证书时，雇主应接收工程。如果工程分为区段时，承包商应有权为每一区段申请移交证书。
    承包商可在他认为工程地区段（视情况而定）将完工并准备移交前14天内，向雇主代表发出申请移交证书的通知。雇主代表在收到承包商的申请后28天内，应：
    （a）向承包商颁发移交证书，说明根据合同工程或区段完工（某些不影响工程或区段按其预定目的使用的扫尾工作除外）的日期及通过竣工检验的日期；
    （b）驳回申请，提出他的理由并说明为使移交证书得以颁发承包商尚需完成的工作。随后承包商应在根据本款再一次发出申请通知前，完成此类工作。
    若在28天期限内雇主代表既未颁发移交证书也未驳回承包商的申请，而当工程或区段（视情况而动基本符合合同要求时，应视为在上述期限内的最后一天已经颁发了移交证书。
 
 Use by The Employer雇主的使用
 10.2 The Employer shall not use any part of the Works unless the Employer’s Representative has issued a Taking-Over Certificate for such part. If a Taking- Over Certificate has been issued for any part of the Works (other than a Section), the liquidated damages for delay in completion of the remainder of the Works (and of the Section of which it forms part) shall, for any period of delay after the date stated in such Taking-Over Certificate, be reduced in the proportion which the value of the part so certified bears to the value of the Works or Section (as the case may be); such values shall be determined by the Employer’s Representative in accordance with the provisions of Sub- Clause 3.5. The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply to the rate of liquidated damages under Sub-Clause 8.6, and shall not affect the limit of such damages.
If the Employer does use any part of the Works before the Taking-Over
Certificate is issued:
(a) the part which is used shall be deemed to have been taken over at the date
on which it is used,
(b) the Employer’s Representative shall, when requested by the Contractor,
issue a Taking-Over Certificate accordingly, and
(c) the Contractor shall cease to be liable for the care of such part from such
date, when responsibility shall pass to the Employer.
After the Employer’s Representative has issued a Taking-Over Certificate for a part of the Works, the Contractor shall be given the earliest opportunity to take such steps as may be necessary to carry out any outstanding Tests on Completion, and the Contractor shall carry out such Tests on Completion as soon as practicable, before the expiry of the Contract Period.
雇主不得使用工程的任何部分，除非雇主代表已颁发了该部分的移交证书。若对工程的任何部分（而不是区段）已颁发了移交证书，对于在移交证书注明的日期之后的任何拖延期间，延误完成该工程以及组成区段的一部分）的剩余部分的损害赔偿费应按已签发部分的价值相对工程或区段（视情况而定）的价值比例相应减少，此类价值应由雇主代表根据第3.5款的规定决定。本款规定仅适用于第8.6款规定的损害赔偿费的比率，而不对上述限额构成影响。
   如果在移交证书颁发前雇主确实使用了工程的任何部分：
   （a）该被使用的部分自其被使用之日，应视为已被雇主接收；
   （b）当承包商要求时，雇主代表应相应地颁发一份移交证书；
   （c）承包商应从使用之日起停止对该部分的照管责任，此时，责任应转给雇主。
    雇主代表在为工程的一部分颁发移交证书后，应尽早给予承包商机会以使其采取可能必要的步骤去完成任何尚未完成的竣工检验。承包商应在合同期满前尽快进行此类竣工检验。
 
Interference with Tests on Completion对竣工检验的干扰
10.3 If the Contractor is prevented from carrying out the Tests on Completion by a cause for which the Employer (or another contractor employed by the Employer) is responsible, the Employer shall be deemed to have taken over the Works or Section (as the case may be) on the date when the Tests on Completion would otherwise have been completed. The Employer’s Representative shall then issue a Taking-Over Certificate accordingly, and the Contractor shall carry out the Tests on Completion as soon as practicable, before the expiry of the Contract Period. The Employer's Representative shall require the Tests on Completion to be carried out by 14 days’ notice and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Contract. If the Contractor incurs additional Cost as a result of this delay in carrying out the Tests on Completion, such Cost plus reasonable profit shall be determined by the Employer’s Representative in accordance with the provisions of Sub-Clause 3.5 and shall be added to the Contract Price.
如果由于雇主（或其雇用的其他承包商）负责的原因妨碍承包商进行竣工检验，则应认为雇主已在本应完成竣工检验之日接收了工程或区段（视情况而定）。雇主代表随后应相应地颁发一份移交证书，并且，承包商应在合同期限期满前尽快进行竣工检验。雇主代表应提前14天发出通知，要求根据合同的有关规定进行竣工检验。若延误进行竣工检验致使承包商产生附加费用，则此类费用连同合理的利润应由雇主代表根据第3.5款的规定予以确定并应加入合同价格。
 
11 Tests after Completion竣工后的检验
TEST AFTER COMPLETION
Employer’s Obligations雇主的义务
11.1 If Tests after Completion are specified in the Contract, this Clause shall apply. Unless otherwise stated in Part II, the Employer shall provide the necessary labour, materials, electricity, fuel and water, and shall carry out the Tests after Completion in accordance with the manuals provided by the Contractor under Sub-Clause 5.7 and such guidance as the Contractor may be required to give during the course of such Tests.
The Tests after Completion shall be carried out as soon as is reasonably practicable after the Works, or Section, have been taken over by the Employer. The Employer shall give to the Contractor 21 days’ notice of the date after which the Tests after Completion will be carried out. Unless otherwise agreed, such Tests shall be carried out within 14 days after this date, on the day or days determined by the Employer. If the Contractor does not attend at the time and place agreed, the Employer may proceed with the Tests after Completion, which shall be deemed to have been made in the Contractor's presence, and the Contractor shall accept the readings as accurate.
The results of the Tests after Completion shall be compiled and evaluated by the Employer and the Contractor. Any effect on the results of the Tests after Completion which can reasonably be shown to be due to the prior use of the Works by the Employer shall be taken into account in assessing such results.
如果合同规定有竣工后的检验，本款将适用。除非第二部分中另有规定，雇主应提供必要的劳工、材料、电、燃料和水，并应根据由承包商按照第5.7款提供的手册以及在此类检验过程中同能要求承包商提供的指导进行竣工后的检验。
   竣工后的检验应于工程或区段移交给雇主后，在合理可行时尽快进行。雇主应提前21天将一个日期通知承包商，说明在该日期后将进行竣工后的检验。除非另有商定，此类检验应在该日期后14天内于雇主确定的某日或数日内进行。若承包商未在商定的时间、地点参加检验，雇主可进行竣工后的检验并应被视为是承包商在场的情况下进行的。承包商应认可检验数据的准确性。
    竣工后的检验的结果应由雇主与承包商整理和鉴定。在评价此类结果时，应将因雇主提前使用工程而对竣工后的检验的结果造成的影响（此类影响是可合理看出的）考虑在内。
 
 Delayed Tests延误的检验
11.2 If the Contractor incurs additional Cost as a result of any unreasonable delay by the Employer in carrying out the Tests after Completion, such Cost plus reasonable profit shall be determined by the Employer’s Representative in accordance with the provisions of Sub-Clause 3.5 and shall be added to the Contract Price.
If, for reasons not attributable to the Contractor, a Test after Completion on the
Works or any Section cannot be completed during the Contract Period (or any other period agreed upon by the Employer and the Contractor), then the Works or such Section shall be deemed to have passed such Test after Completion.
若因雇主无故拖延竣工后的检验致使承包商产生附加费用，则此类费用连同合理的利润应由雇主代表根据第3.5款的规定加以确定，并应加入合同价格中，如果未能在合同期（或由雇主与承包商商定的任何其他期限）内完成对工程或任何区段的竣工后的检验，不是由于承包商的原因造成的，则工程或此类区段应被视为已通过了竣工后的检验。
 
 Retesting重新检验
11.3 If the Works, or a Section, fail to pass the Tests after Completion, the Employer or the Contractor may require such failed Tests, and the Tests after Completion on any related work, to be repeated under the same terms and conditions. If such failure and retesting result from a default of the Contractor and cause the Employer to incur additional costs, such costs shall be recoverable from the Contractor by the Employer, and may be deducted by the Employer from any monies due, or to become due, to the Contractor.
如果工程或一区段未能通过竣工后的检验，雇主或承包商可要求按照相同的条款和条件，重新进行此类未通过的检验以及对相关工作的竣工后的检验。若此类未通过的检验和重新检验是由于承包商的违约造成并使雇主产生了附加费用，则此类费用应由雇主从承包商处收回，亦可由雇主从任何应支付或将支付给承包商的款项中扣除。

Failure to Pass Tests after Completion.
11.4 If the following conditions apply, namely:
(a) the Works, or a Section, fail to pass any or all of the Tests after Completion, (b) the relevant sum payable as liquidated damages for such failure is stated (or its method of calculation is defined) in the Appendix to Tender, and (c) the Contractor pays such relevant sum to the Employer during the Contract Period,

In such event, the Contractor shall remain liable to carry out the adjustment or modification, and to satisfy such Test within a reasonable time of being notified to do so by the Employer's Representative. If, however, the Employer's Representative fails to give any such notice during the Contract Period, the Contractor shall be relieved of any such obligation and the Works or Section (as the case may be) shall be deemed to have passed such Test after Completion. If the Contractor incurs additional Cost as a result of any unreasonable delay by the Employer in permitting access to the Works or Plant by the Contractor, either to investigate the causes of failure to pass a Test after Completion, or to carry out any adjustments or modifications, then the Contractor shall be paid the additional Cost, plus reasonable profit, caused by such delay.

The Contractor shall then deliver all Construction Documents, and other design documents made by or for him, to the Employer’s Representative. The Contractor shall not be released from any of his obligations or liabilities under the Contract. The rights and authorities conferred on the Employer and the Employer’s Representative by the Contract shall not be affected.

The Contractor shall effect all insurances for which he is responsible with insurers
and in terms approved by the Employer. Each policy insuring against loss or damage shall provide for payments to be made in the currencies required to rectify such loss or damage. Payments received from insurers shall be used for the rectification of such loss or damage.
The Contractor (and, if appropriate, the Employer) shall comply with the conditions stipulated in each of the insurance policies. The Contractor shall make no material alteration to the terms of any insurance without the prior approval of the Employer. If an insurer makes (or purports to make) any such alteration, the Contractor shall notify the Employer immediately.
If the Contractor fails to effect and keep in force any of the insurances required
under the Contract, or fails to provide satisfactory evidence, policies and receipts in accordance with this Sub-Clause, the Employer may, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, effect insurance for the coverage relevant to such default, and pay the premiums due. Such payments shall be recoverable from the Contractor by the Employer, and may be deducted by the Employer from any monies due, or to become due, to the Contractor. Nothing in this Clause limits the obligations, liabilities or responsibilities of the Contractor or the Employer, under the other terms of the Contract or otherwise.

20.3 Unless the member or members of the Dispute Adjudication Board have been previously mutually agreed upon by the parties and named in the Contract, the parties shall, within 28 days of the Effective Date, jointly ensure the appointment of a Dispute Adjudication Board. Such Dispute Adjudication Board shall comprise suitably qualified persons as members, the number of members being either one or three, as stated in the Appendix to Tender.

The Dispute Adjudication Board’s appointment may be terminated only by mutual agreement of the Employer and the Contractor. The Dispute
Adjudication Board’s appointment shall expire when the discharge referred to in Sub-Clause 13.12 shall have become effective, or at such other time as the parties may mutually agree.
If, at any time, the parties so agree, they may appoint a suitably qualified person to replace (or to be available to replace) any or all members of the Dispute Adjudication Board. The appointment will come into effect if a member of the Dispute Adjudication Board declines to act or is, unable to act as a result of death, disability, resignation or termination of appointment. If a member so declines or is unable to act, and no such replacement is available to act, the member shall be replaced in the same manner as such member was to have been nominated.
If any of the following conditions apply, namely:
(a) the parties fail to agree upon the appointment of the sole member of a one person
Dispute Adjudication Board within 28 days of the Effective Date,
(b) either party fails to nominate an acceptable member, for the Dispute Adjudication Board of three members, within 28 days of the Effective Date,
(c) the parties fail to agree upon the appointment of the third member (to act as chairman) within 28 days of the Effective Date, or
(d) the parties fail to agree upon the appointment of a replacement member of the Dispute Adjudication Board within 28 days of the date on which a member of the Dispute Adjudication Board declines to act or is unable to act as a result of death, disability, resignation or termination of appointment,
then the person or administration named in the Appendix to the Tender shall, after due consultation with the parties, nominate such member of the Dispute Adjudication Board, and such nomination shall be final and conclusive.
 
Procedure for Obtaining Dispute Adjudication Board’s Decision
20.4 If a dispute arises between the Employer and the Contractor in connection with, or arising out of, the Contract or the execution of the Works, including any dispute as to any opinion, instruction, determination, certification or valuation of the Employer’s Representative, the dispute shall initially be referred in writing to the Dispute Adjudication Board for its decision, with a copy to the other party. Such reference shall state that it is made under this Sub-Clause. The parties shall promptly make available to the Dispute Adjudication Board all such information, access to the Site, and appropriate facilities, as the Dispute Adjudication Board may require for the purposes of rendering its decision. No later than the fifty-sixth day after the day on which it received such reference, the Dispute Adjudication Board, acting as a panel of expert(s) and not as arbitrator(s), shall give notice of its decision to the parties. Such notice shall include reasons and shall state that it is given under this Sub-Clause.
Unless the Contract has already been repudiated or terminated, the Contractor shall, in every case, continue to proceed with the Works with all due diligence, and the Contractor and the Employer shall give effect forthwith to every decision of the Dispute Adjudication Board, unless and until the same shall be revised, as hereinafter provided, in an amicable settlement or an arbitral award.
If either party is dissatisfied with the Dispute Adjudication Board’s decision,
then either party, on or before the twenty-eighth day after the day on which it
received notice of such decision, may notify the other party of its dissatisfaction.
If the Dispute Adjudication Board fails to give notice of its decision on or before the fifty-sixth day after the day on which it received the reference, then either party, on or before the twenty-eighth day after the day on which the said period of fifty-six days has expired, may notify the other party of its dissatisfaction. In either event, such notice of dissatisfaction shall state that it is given under this Sub-Clause, such notice shall set out the matters in dispute and the reason(s) for dissatisfaction and, subject to Sub-Clauses 20.7 and 20.8, no arbitration in respect of such dispute may be commenced unless such notice is given.
If the Dispute Adjudication Board has given notice of its decision as to a matter
in dispute to the Employer and the Contractor and no notice of dissatisfaction
has been given by either party on or before the twenty-eighth day after the day
on which the parties received the Dispute Adjudication Board's decision, then
the Dispute Adjudication Board's decision shall become final and binding upon
the Employer and the Contractor.
 
Amicable Settlement
20.5 Where notice of dissatisfaction has been given under Sub-Clause 20.4, the parties shall attempt to settle such dispute amicably before the commencement of arbitration. Provided that unless the parties agree otherwise, arbitration may be commenced on or after the fifty-sixth day after the day on which notice of dissatisfaction was given, even if no attempt at amicable settlement has been made.
 
Arbitration 20.6 Any dispute in respect of which:
(a) the decision, if any, of the Dispute Adjudication Board has not become final and binding pursuant to Sub-Clause 20.4, and
(b) amicable settlement has not been reached,
shall be finally decided by international arbitration. The arbitration rules under which the arbitration is conducted, the institution to nominate the arbitrator(s) or to administer the arbitration rules (unless named therein), the number of arbitrators, and the language and place of such arbitration shall be as set out
in the Appendix to Tender. The arbitrator(s) shall have full power to open up, review and revise any decision of the Dispute Adjudication Board.
Neither party shall be limited, in the proceedings before such arbitrator(s),
to the evidence or arguments previously put before the Dispute Adjudication
Board to obtain its decision.
Arbitration may be commenced prior to or after completion of the Works. The obligations of the parties and the Dispute Adjudication Board shall not be altered by reason of the arbitration being conducted during the progress of the Works.
 
Failure to Comply with Dispute Adjudication Board's Decision
20.7 Where neither party has given notice of dissatisfaction within the period stated
in Sub-Clause 20.4 and the Dispute Adjudication Board's related decision, if any, has become final and binding, either party may, if the other party fails to comply with such decision, and without prejudice to any other rights it may have, refer the failure itself to arbitration under Sub-Clause 20.6. The provisions of Sub-Clauses 20.4 and 20.5 shall not apply to any such reference.
 
Expiry of Dispute Adjudication Board’s Appointment
20.8 When the appointment of the Dispute Adjudication Board and of any replacement has expired, any such dispute referred to in Sub-Clause 20.4 shall be finally settled by arbitration pursuant to Sub-Clause 20.6. The provisions of Sub-Clauses 20.4 and 20.5 shall not apply to any such reference.
