Defective design has contributed to many disputes within construction project (Yates, 1997; Assaf, 1996). Defective design is an inadequate imperfect design which affirmed as incorrect, failed, or even hard to constructed design. Disputes bring over this defective design have been arised by ambiguous statement of shared liability in the conditions of contract when only one side suffer from loss. This ambiguous parts of conditions of contract usually not accomodated to contractor's claim and put them on the weak position.<p>The goal of this research is to identify the variety of defective design that occurrs in construction phase and analyze the liability sharing of defective design loss in order to recognize whose responsibility this is. This study is based on conditions of contract commonly used in Indonesian's construction industry, FIDIC 1987 and AV-41 version of conditions of contract as reference.<p>Trough literature study and field research, 8 criteria of defective designs can be found such as buildability, performance, features, conformance, reliability, durability, serviceability, and aesthetic. Research indicates that eventhough owner take full responsibility of defective design loss in many cases, contractor also takes the responsibility for spesific criteria such as design buildability, design performance, and design features. For design buildability criteria, contractor has to be responsible for the additional cost related to unavailability of material due to the specification, inappropiate construction method, extra temporary work, and the existence of other buildings in location. For design performance criteria, contractor has responsible for the additional cost related to an ambiguous design and inconsistency between shop drawing and original design. Similarly on design features, contractor has to responsibility for extra cost on using unfamiliar new technology.
