The world's most incredible motorcycles are given the artful representation they deserve. The motorcycle should have disappeared with the advent of the inexpensive automobile, since Henry Ford's Model T usurped the motorcycle's position as a primary form of utilitarian transportation, but a funny thing happened on the way to extinction - the motorcycle not only survived but thrived. Enough people were enamored of the thrill and beauty of the two-wheeled mechanical beast to ensure it would continue to exist indefinitely. And exist they have! Many of the motorcycles manufactured over the past century truly fit the description of "classic," and many consider these machines works of art. Written by noted motorcycle author Patrick Hahn, Classic Motorcycles presents the history of motorcycling as told through the most significant, iconic, classic motorcycles of all time, with both period photography and modern portrait photography. All the best domestic and international makes are represented here, from BMWs, Indians, and Triumphs to Vincents, Ducatis, and Harley-Davidsons - the most classic models. You'll drool over the 1933 Matchless Silver Hawk, and you'll want to tear out the page displaying the 1956 Triumph Thunderbird and frame it. Each motorcycle was shot in a studio setting using photographer Tom Loeser's light-painting technique. Period ads and relevant historic photos and documents are spread throughout the book to supplement the portraits of the bikes, really evoking a sense of time and place. Prepare to be in awe of the undeniably classic motorcycles in this collection. It's the only motorcycle history you'll need"--Provided by publisher."Classic Motorcycles: The Art of Speed collects over two dozen European and Asian brands of classic and contemporary models, explaining how and why these particular bikes have endured"--Provided by publisher.Antique and classic motorcyclesPictorial worksMotorcyclingHistoryAntique and classic motorcyclesMotorcyclingHistory.629.227/5TRA003020TRA003010TRA003000bisacshHahn Pat1969-1245741Loeser TomMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910156236203321Classic motorcycles2889047UNINA05468nam 2200721Ia 450 991101888390332120200520144314.097866120093279781282009325128200932X978144430236314443023619781444302370144430237X(CKB)1000000000715944(EBL)416395(OCoLC)437096938(SSID)ssj0000136053(PQKBManifestationID)11146210(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000136053(PQKBWorkID)10062958(PQKB)10474818(MiAaPQ)EBC416395(PPN)169846229(Perlego)2757168(EXLCZ)99100000000071594420080404d2008 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrDefective construction work /Kevin BarrettChichester, West Sussex, UK ;Ames, Iowa Blackwell Sciencec20081 online resource (224 p.)Description based upon print version of record.9780632059294 063205929X Includes bibliographical references and index.Contents; Preface; Abbreviations; Chapter 1: Definition and Categorisation of Defects; 1.1 Definition of 'defect'; 1.2 Qualitative defects; 1.3 Patent/latent defects; 1.4 Reasonable examination; 1.5 Importance of the distinction between patent and latent defects; 1.6 The 'purchaser', the 'project team' and other terminology; Chapter 2: Common Law, Statutory and Contractual Rights; 2.1 Common law; 2.2 Statute; 2.3 Contractual rights; Chapter 3: Contracts: An Overview; 3.1 Function; 3.2 The basics; 3.3 Express terms; 3.4 Implied terms; 3.5 Exclusion of implied terms; 3.6 Exclusion clauses3.7 Risk allocation3.8 Model conditions of contract; Chapter 4: No Contract/Restitution; 4.1 Restitution; 4.2 Restitution and defects; Chapter 5: Letters of Intent; 5.1 Function; 5.2 Legal analysis; 5.3 The implications where defects occur; Chapter 6: Tort: An Overview; 6.1 Negligence; 6.2 Complex structures; 6.3 Economic harm; 6.4 Builders and professional consultants; Chapter 7: The Defective Premises Act 1972; 7.1 Application; 7.2 Fitness for habitation; 7.3 Exclusion; Chapter 8: Third Party Rights; 8.1 The exception; 8.2 Agency; 8.3 Assignment; 8.4 Novation8.5 Statutory third party rights8.6 Collateral contracts; 8.7 Tort; Chapter 9: Statutory Requirements; 9.1 The Building Act 1984; 9.2 Building regulations; 9.3 Construction products; 9.4 Workplace safety regulations; 9.5 CDM regulations; 9.6 The relationship with contractual obligations; Chapter 10: The Builder's Obligations: Design, Workmanship and Materials; 10.1 Buildability, durability and maintenance; 10.2 Workmanship; 10.3 Materials; 10.4 Design; Chapter 11: The Builder's Obligations: Defects Before Completion; 11.1 Temporary disconformities; 11.2 Opening up the work11.3 Defects and interim paymentChapter 12: The Builder's Obligations: Defects at Completion; 12.1 Scope of work to be completed; 12.2 Completion; 12.3 Snagging; 12.4 The effect of practical completion; 12.5 The ICE, NEC3 and MF/1 conditions; 12.6 The JCT Major Project Construction Contract; 12.7 The provision of information prior to practical completion; Chapter 13: The Builder's Obligations: Defects Post Completion; 13.1 The common law; 13.2 Defects liability period; 13.3 Retention money; 13.4 Retention bonds; 13.5 Final certificates; Chapter 14: The Professional Team14.1 Membership of a professional body14.2 The structure of the team; 14.3 Duties; 14.4 Buildability, durability and maintenance; Chapter 15: Architects and Engineers; 15.1 Design; 15.2 Selecting builders and other specialists; 15.3 Supervision; 15.4 Periodic inspection; 15.5 Certification; 15.6 Design review; 15.7 Defects investigations; 15.8 Honest reporting; 15.9 Termination of performance; Chapter 16: Project Managers, Surveyors and Others; 16.1 Project managers; 16.2 Quantity surveyors; 16.3 CDM coordinators; 16.4 Clerk of works/engineer's representative; Chapter 17: Compensation17.1 AbatementDefective construction work, whether the result of inadequate design, faulty workmanship or poor materials - or some combination of these failings - is a frequent cause of legal disputes. Someone is usually to blame, either the builder or one or more of the professional consultants, or even the entire project team. It is important therefore that the project team should possess a good working knowledge of their responsibilities and liabilities.
