| 单词 | Prolongation cost |
| 释义 | 延長費用 In building law, extra expense resulting from an extension to the period for performing construction works. Most contracts for building or engineering work entitle the contractor to an extension of time for completion if events occur which might, if prolonged, frustrate the contract. Valuing delay by calculating a daily rate for time-related preliminaries might well result in a significant under-reimbursement to the contractor, therefore prolongation costs should be calculated on a cost or loss and expense basis: A-G v Shimizu Corp (Formerly known as Shimizu Construction Co Ltd) (HCMP 1169, 2892, 2893, 2895/95, unreported). Where the employer’s conduct causes delay, the contractor is similarly entitled to the extra cost which he would not have incurred but for the delay: Lawson v Wallasey Local Board (1883) 11 QBD 229 See also Acceleration cost; Breach of contract; Building contract; Contractor; Delay. 就建築法而言，因履行建築工程的時間需要延長而引起的額外開支。大部份的建築或工程合約在下述情況會賦予承建商延長竣工時間的權力，即發生了假如延長便會令合約受挫失效的事件。如以計算每日與時間有關的開拓費來為延誤作估值，可能會導致對承建商的付還嚴重不足，因此延長費用應在成本，或損失及開支的基礎上計算：A-G v Shimizu Corp (Formerly known as Shimizu Construction Co Ltd) （高院雜項案件1995年第1169, 2892, 2893及2895號，未經彙報）。凡僱主的行為導致延誤，承建商同樣有權取回假如沒有該延誤他就不會引起的額外成本：Lawson v Wallasey Local Board (1883) 48 LT 507（英國上訴法院）。另見 Acceleration cost; Breach of contract; Building contract; Contractor; Delay。 |
