Construction claims result from issues in design, contract disputes, construction workmanship, products used, or maintenance. Claims can include collapses, settlement, general facility damage, structural degradation, wet basements, work quality issues, and maintenance practices. Construction claims may also include injury to non-construction persons at the public interface with a construction site or damage to adjacent facilities. Building codes, ordinances, and other codes, standards, and work site practices provide direction to perform high quality construction in a safe manner.
