The new publication, together with its com- panion book ( The Legal Process dealing with Construction Disputes ), is based on courses which the author has been presenting since 2013 under the auspices of SAICE as part of the Institution’s Continuing Professional Development (CPD) support for persons registered in terms of the Engineering Profession Act 46 of 2000. Whereas the companion book deals with the dispute resolution process in con- siderable detail (leading to the proverbial shaking of hands), this follow-up book aims to equip the reader with knowledge and techniques to deal with challenges to the jurisdiction of a presiding officer within the construction dispute resolution process, usually encountered during adju- dications and arbitrations. A challenge may be a bona fide defence against the relief or remedy sought but may also be lodged as a challenge mainly for a tactical reason, such as to frustrate the proceedings (similar to what is known as the Stalingrad tactic). This book explains the difference be- tween the two main kinds of jurisdictional challenges – threshold challenges (which challenge the presiding officer’s right to preside over a matter) and internal chal- lenges (which assert that some aspects of a party’s case or defence fall outside the presiding officer’s jurisdiction) – and how these should be dealt with. The examples used in the chapter on case studies are based on the SAICE General Conditions of Contract, Third Edition 2015. However, the knowledge gained can also be applied to any of the other three standard form construction contracts commonly used in South Africa. The book sets out the basic princi- ples of how to deal with jurisdictional challenges and is therefore presented as a practical reference.  Both books are available from the SAICE bookstore: store.saice.org.za SAICE Academy launches publication ACADEMY Adjudication and Arbitration How to deal with Challenges to Jurisdiction Hubert Thompson SAICEAcademyPublication Adjudication and Arbitration: How to deal with Challenges to Jurisdiction Hubert Thompson Scan the QR code alongside to access previous editions of Civil Engineering .
