The Contract Agreement For Construction Work is a fundamental document used in Danish construction projects to establish legally binding obligations between the employer and contractor. It is essential for any construction project in Denmark, whether commercial, residential, or infrastructure-related. The agreement must comply with Danish construction law, particularly the Building Act (Byggeloven) and typically incorporates AB 18 standard conditions. This document is crucial when initiating any construction project as it defines the scope, timeline, payment terms, quality requirements, and risk allocation between parties. It includes specific provisions required under Danish law regarding permits, workplace safety, environmental compliance, and dispute resolution. The agreement serves as the primary reference point throughout the construction project and provides the framework for managing changes, claims, and project completion.
