The term Contract used in Engineering or Construction management can be defined as: "An agreement entered into by two parties under the terms of which one party agrees to perform a specific job for which the other party agrees to pay. Contract documents attached to and/or stated in the agreement form integral parts of the contract" Essentials of Contract Validity • The parties to the contract must be competent, and legally capable of playing their intended part. The law can not enforce the agreement on someone who has not the legal capacity to enter into an agreement. This could be due to infancy, lunacy, drunkenness, or being restricted from entering into such agreement by a prior in date agreement or scope of authority. • The subject matter of the contract must be lawful and definite in respect of requirements and duties of each party. For example a contract violating municipal regulation is not binding and is void in courts. • Proposal and acceptance: There must be a proper proposal by one party and its absolute and unqualified acceptance by the other party. The proposal is not binding without a clear acceptance and is not binding beyond its date of validity. • Free consent of parties to the contract: Consent is said to be free when it is not caused by force, or undue influence or fraud or misrepresentation.

Technical Writing for Engineering, Construction & Technicians is highly specific in what it aims to achieve, i.e. passing on information accurately, correctly etc. using understandable formatting to lead the user through the information. The field of technical writing covers a variety of areas of major value to any organisation. Some of these areas are: • The writing of technical reports using easy-to-follow formats and presentation. • The writing of proposals – from relatively easy to major proposals; formats remain the same, it is content that changes. • The writing of procedures that are focussed on the user and their understanding of the work to be done. • Creating presentations that work - correct use of colours, fonts, font sizes, graphics and displays etc. • The writing of Minutes of meetings and accompanying agendas. If the writer understands how to produce these documents and presentations clearly and with audiences targeted, the work of editing documentation should become part of the process of reporting information. Course Objectives: To explain and help attendees understand the structure of important engineering & technical documents as well as certain business documents, e.g. reports, proposals, procedures, letters, memo’s, e-mail, minutes of meetings etc., presentations To ensure understanding of why writing should be reader-centred and how to achieve this, and increase credibility - practical application.
