FAR Part 36: The Federal Acquisition Regulation Clauses That Shape Federal Construction Contracts
FAR Part 36 contains the federal government's construction-specific contracting rules — differing site conditions, changes, default termination, liquidated damages, schedule requirements, and many others. Contractors bidding federal construction work need to understand which FAR clauses will be in the contract and what they mean in practice. The clauses differ materially from standard commercial contract terms and create obligations contractors often don't anticipate until they're in a dispute.
