In a fast moving highly competitive business hub;the process of Construction Contracts preparation is usually shortened by resorting to previously prepared forms of agreement templates. Even if due diligence is carried out during the contract preparation stage, it becomes extremely difficult to anticipate for and include every single contingency that may arise from contract misinterpretation resulted from implicit terms. As such, to mitigate being involved in numerous disputes and arbitration cases due to contractual "gaps", all parties bounded by a binding agreement are recommended to be aware of their Implied Obligations and ensure that their implicit duties are accommodated for, as appropriate, within the construction contract. In this study, a survey measuring the gap between perceptions of 13 pre-identified Implied Obligations and actual experiences has been created and collected from 30 people out of 100 surveys sent out that had demonstrated even though most of the Implied Terms pre-identified are generally agreed on as Obligations by most parties involved in a contract, they are;however, rarely experienced most of the time. This indicates the potential of a high number of claim cases arising due to these contractual gaps.

The required configuration management and the necessary control of the Surface Ship Combat System elements demand that they be considered as integrated and tested in accordance with an integrated test plan utilizing an integrated test organization. The sometimes used approach of implementing a combat system test program based upon the individual combat system elements being independent, has proven to be less than satisfactory. Then is no question that some of the early testing at the unit, subsystem, and subprogram levels can be planned and conducted independent of a specific “end-item” combat System. This paper addresses the planning and implementing of combat system test with the emphases being upon the integrated phase of test and primarily the lead ship of a class. Information is presented to facilitate planning and implementing a combat system test program including use of shore facilities and integrating these activities with shipboard activities; when to form the test organization and what types of expertise are required; what are the key technical management tools; the proofing of test documentation; the need for detailed “step-by-step” procedures and traceability of the specified requirements; how to assist Ships Force; planning and stat using the conduct of the tests; integrating computer program and special testing into the test program; and the significance of early decisions on administrative and contractual arrangements.

The need for safe operation and effective maintenance of pipelines grows as oil and gas demand ***,it is increasingly imperative to monitor and inspect the pipeline system,detect causes contributing to developing pipeline damage,and perform preventive maintenance in a timely ***,pipeline inspection is performed at pre-determined intervals of several months,which is not sufficiently robust in terms of *** research proposes a drone and artificial intelligence reconsolidated technological solution(DARTS) by integrating drone technology and deep learning *** solution is aimed to detect the targeted potential root problems-pipes out of alignment and deterioration of pipe support system-that can cause critical pipeline failures and predict the progress of the detected problems by collecting and analyzing image data *** test results show that DARTS can be effectively used to support decision making for preventive pipeline maintenance to increase pipeline system s afety and resilience.
