Description
THE Construction Contracts Book: Annotated Analysis and Comparison of the AIA, Consensus Docs, and EJCDC Contract Forms 3rd Edition David A Scotti ISBN 9781641056397
A comprehensive, topic-by-topic comparison of construction contract forms from the AIA, EJCDC, and ConsensusDOCS.
Most construction lawyers are familiar with the American Institute of Architects (AIA) forms, the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee (EJCDC) forms, and the newer ConsensusDOCS agreements. This fully revised third edition provides an invaluable reference by comparing these forms side by side, offering:
-
An easy-reference guide to how AIA, ConsensusDOCS, and EJCDC agreements address the most significant issues in owner–contractor–subcontractor and owner–design professional contracts.
-
Suggested alternative language for situations where standard form provisions may not provide the optimal solution.
While some chapters have been consolidated for clarity and ease of use, the book retains the format of prior editions. Each chapter is organized by topic and examines how it is treated in the AIA, ConsensusDOCS, and EJCDC agreements. Chapters are divided into three sections:
-
Background and Critical Issues – Introduces the topic and explains the key considerations.
-
Form Contract Comparison – Details relevant provisions from each form and compares how they address the issue.
-
Alternative Clauses – Offers practical sample language for practitioners to adapt when standard contract language may be insufficient.
This edition remains a practical, go-to resource for construction lawyers seeking a clear, side-by-side understanding of the most widely used contract forms.

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
