The construction manager
is a person who represents the investor
on the construction site and makes sure that the house is built in accordance
with the construction and design. The
duties of the construction manager are determined by the Construction Law.
Construction law imposes
on the investor the obligation to establish a construction manager. He takes over the entirety of the
