’žIt is hat accessories significant to note that the policy under consideration in Commonwealth Construction listed the named insured as "Imperial Oil& and any of their contractors and sub-contractors." As a result, the case does not stand for the general proposition that all contractors will be included as unnamed insureds in all builder's risk policies. Although Commonwealth Construction is distinguishable given that the insurance policy in that case defined the "insured" to specifically include sub-contractors, the analysis by the Supreme Court of Canada regarding the intent of the construction contract regarding insurance has informed the law on the issue of who is an unnamed insured. The Supreme Court of Canada found that the intent of all the parties to a construction contract was to obtain a builder's risk policy.
While it is quite obvious that it is generally desirable to have the risk borne (and therefore premiums paid for comprehensive coverage of all involved in a project) by the most appropriate party to achieve the overall benefits mentioned just above (ed. premium costs and avoiding litigation confusion) this benefit cannot in itself change the interpretation which would otherwise be given to a contract of insurance. In that hat silks case, the unnamed subcontractor supplied steel beams to a housing project and one of its workers started a fire. The trial judge ignored the Commonwealth Construction line of reasoning and focused on the fact that the beams damaged in the fire constituted other property, which would be covered by the policy.
That fact made the subcontractor an insured and the trial judge concluded that the jd hats waiver of subrogation clause applied. The respondents urge that it is intended to waive subrogation only where the loss is incurred to the subcontractors' property. Another possible interpretation is that it is a general waiver against persons whose property is covered by the policy. We are not forced to choose between these alternatives, but the latter would be consistent with my express views as to the general intent of the parties to avoid litigation over fire damage occasioned during the course of construction. A broad interpretation of the property coverages, which includes the work of subcontractors, is in harmony with the commercial context of builders' risk insurance.
Likewise, all such parties will be afforded coverage as insureds under the policy. The overriding rationale for the prohibition of subrogation by a john lewis wedding hats builder's risk insurer against those involved in a construction project is linked to public policy considerations involving economics and business efficacy. The reasonable expectation of the parties who entered into the builder's risk policy was to insure the property without regard to which contractor or subcontractor was responsible. By upholding a waiver of subrogation in construction cases, the courts intend to promote insurance funds being made available quickly following a loss, to limit the amount of litigation that arises from a loss, and to avoid the need for each and every contractor and sub-contractor to purchase its own insurance for the value of the entire project.
Here, the project was virtually complete. The facility had been operating for a significant period of time. A major portion of the damages involves loss due to business disruption. The negligence was not something that arose as a result of construction, or as part of the construction process. Both the peril and the damage at issue here are of an operating nature, and therefore come within the operating portion of the policy. I do not think that Dresser can come within that coverage. The reasons for judgment say that the insurance should be interpreted as not covering contractors' property after construction was virtually complete. Whether that was intended as a general proposition of law and a general principle of interpreting construction insurance, or whether it was confined to the facts of this case, is unclear.
Only damage to the stored rails constituted resultant damage. Damage here occurred to an integral part of the very property that was subject to the faulty design. With all due respect to the arguments advanced on behalf of the plaintiff, it appears abundantly clear to me that "design" encompasses jordan hat the totality of the superstructure and that each and every part of the superstructure was integral to the whole, and what, in fact, overturned into the Elbow River was the whole structure. The "design" was, in my view, fundamental to the whole, and when the design was in error the whole of the superstructure was doomed to fail, and did indeed fail. The Court found that the exclusion clause only protected the insurer in relation to the cost involved in replacing or correcting the faulty compaction which underlay the slab  including the material and workmanship required to compact it. |
