What does Abandon mean?

Describes a situation where contractor stops carrying out the works for a prolonged and consecutive period of days (for example 20 business days) or for a longer non-consecutive period of days throughout the life of the project (for example 60 business days) and does so wilfully and without a reason. abandonment is usually classed as a contractor default which would allow the authority to terminate the project agreement and/or Project Co to terminate the construction contract.
