The concept of contract states an agreement, a
convenience. In general a contract of work is a contract governed by private
law, with the exception of being contrary to public order. In Turkish
implementation of construction contract has a sub-regulation which used in
public procurements. In generally, claim is an interest or remedy recognized by
law; the means by which a person or organization can obtain a privilege,
possession, or enjoyment of a right or thing. According to The FIDIC Red Book
the contractor can claim extention of time, payment and resource however,
according to the Turkish General Specifications for the Construction Affairs
the contractor can only claim extention of time. In The FIDIC Red Book the
engineer is an independent being but in the Turkish General Specifications for
the Construction Affairs the engineer is an employee of the government and for
this reason the engineer is not as independent as the engineer in the FIDIC Red
Book. Detailed comparison of the contractors' claim in the each text is given
in the article.
