By Roger W. Stone
Article Introduction
This Article discusses principles and cases applicable to claims for damages on construction projects.

The purpose of the Article is to present an overview of the damage issues and principles that commonly arise in Iowa construction cases, with the hope of providing some guidance to practicing lawyers.
