AS 4906-2002

AS 4906 – 2002 Edition – Minor works contract conditions (Principal administered)

This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee OB-003, General Conditions of Contract, to supersede, in part, AS 4305—1996, Minor Works Contract Conditions.

This Standard incorporates Amendment No. 1 (March 2005). The changes required by the Amendment are indicated in the text by a marginal bar and amendment number against the clause, note, table, figure or part thereof affected.

This Standard is the result of a consensus among Australian and New Zealand representatives on the Joint Committee to produce it as an Australian Standard.

AS 4906—2002, Minor Works Contract Conditions (Principal administered) is part of the suite of conditions of contract based on AS 4000—1997, General Conditions of Contract.

This Standard is intended to be used for construction-only projects of a simple nature and of limited monetary value. It is not suitable for projects of a complex or long-term nature, or where a bill of quantities has been prepared. There is also no provision for separable portions or selected subcontracts.

This Standard provides for administration by a Principal. Where it is intended that a Superintendent administer the contract, AS 4905—2002, Minor Works Contract Conditions (Superintendent administered) should be used.

This Standard is not meant to be used as a short form of AS 4000—1997, General Conditions of Contract. Certain obligations and risks are dealt with differently from the way they are dealt with in AS 4000—1997.
