The master's thesis presents the concept of modern complex building contracts. With the development of such contracts, various possibilities and combinations of realization of construction works have appeared for the client, and the roles of the designer, contractor and other experts have changed as compared with the traditional types of contracts related to construction.
The three basic traditional types of contracts:design contract, construction contract, contract to supervision of works, often proved to be too rigid in the case of more demanding construction projects. In the meantime, complex types combine all elements of traditional types of contracts and normally services that the client would have to perform itself in the traditional approach.
In the main part of the master's thesis, three combined contracts are presented: design and build contract, design and supervision contract, project management. Typically all three contracts offer the integration of certain services. The design and build contract involves the integration of design and building services on the side of the contractor, which, in addition to the responsibility for the execution of works, assumes responsibility for the project. In the design and supervision contract, the designer undertakes to prepare the project documentation and to supervise the construction on the basis of this project documentation. In the project management, project management services range from pre-investment studies on the feasibility of the idea and economic efficiency, design, selection and coordination of suppliers of equipment and contractors, supervision, negotiation and preparation and conclusion of contracts with suppliers of equipment and contractors.
