Abstract
Work means the construction, maintenance, repair, or alteration of a structure or part thereof. Section 2623 et seq. of the Civil Code provides for certain exceptions to the general regulation of a contract for work, contracts for the alteration of immovable property, and for contracts for the construction, repair, or alteration of a construction.
In matters not regulated by these provisions, the general regulation of work contracts also applies to construction contracts. The aim of the authors' article is to draw attention to these exceptions, to de ne the concept of construction, to focus on construction as an object of the work, including related issues, as well as on the legal regulation of works with intangible results.
