In October 2021, CCDC launched CCDC Document Webinars, an exciting new initiative aimed at providing information and guidance about the content and use of our standard construction documents. We have heard your questions and are ready to provide simple yet comprehensive answers! These author-led sessions are designed to explain the underlying principles behind CCDC documents and teach you their correct application and use. Documents are available for purchase from our document outlets. Please see our upcoming schedule below.

August webinar: Protecting Yourself Against Armageddon: Indemnities, Limitations of Liability, and Waivers of Claims in Contracts

“Betting the farm” is a poor contracting strategy, yet many do just that with the amount of risk they assume on their projects. This August, CCDC is hosting a webinar on indemnification, limits of liability, and waivers of claims in construction contracts. Attendees will learn:

  • The available mechanisms designed to protect parties against exposure to massive risk.
  • The CCDC standards of reasonable indemnity, limitations of liability and waivers of claims.
  • The importance of fair and balanced contract language for project owners and contractors alike.
  • What good contractors are looking out for in their construction contracts.
  • The negotiation of fairer allocations of risk.

This webinar, presented by Geza Banfai, Counsel at McMillan LLP and the ex officio legal representative on CCDC, explores these topics and provides guidance for contractors, project owners, consultants, and other industry professionals.
