<strong>W087</strong> - <strong>Post</strong>-<strong>Construction</strong> <strong>Liability</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Insurance</strong><br />
<strong>Literary</strong> award to <strong>W087</strong><br />
The very high reputation which <strong>W087</strong> has long enjoyed not only in international construction <strong>and</strong><br />
insurance circles but among a much wider group of researchers <strong>and</strong> practitioners outside has received a<br />
further boost with its recent publication Case Studies in <strong>Post</strong> <strong>Construction</strong> <strong>Liability</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Insurance</strong> being<br />
awarded a Commendation from the UK Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB).<br />
This year the CIOB initiated an annual literary award in the field of construction <strong>and</strong> that to <strong>W087</strong> was<br />
in the category of textbooks.<br />
<strong>CIB</strong> sends its warm congratulations to Coordinator Professor Anthony Lavers <strong>and</strong> the contributors<br />
involved.<br />
It is worth recording that ever since the appearance of what has become known as the famous 'Green<br />
Book' on <strong>Post</strong>-<strong>Construction</strong> <strong>Liability</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Insurance</strong> in 1993 <strong>W087</strong> has produced a small but select series<br />
of publications that have achieved great success in disseminating knowledge of the topic in the<br />
international context.<br />
