1. Introduction to these terms
These terms of service set the ground rules for two connected relationships. The first is the simple use of this website by any visitor; the second is the commission of professional work from MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD, the company trading the design and marking activities of MGD Construct from an office at 211 St. Marys Road, LONDON - N9 8NR, United Kingdom (GB).
The company reads computer systems design and the coordination of structural steel together, because a fabrication drawing is only as good as the ledger, the schedule, the cost line and the site log that travel with it. These terms therefore cover both, so that a client who commissions a drawing set and a client who commissions a coordination board meets one clear set of rules.
Words used here control what happens in a real dispute, so the company wrote them to be read rather than to be decorative. A visitor scanning for a single answer can jump to the contents table above. Where a person wants the full reading, the terms appear in sections so that a question about payment, delivery or liability has a place of its own.
2. Acceptance of these terms
Use of this website is acceptance of these terms and of the separate privacy policy. Simply opening www.mgdconstruct.buzz does not create a formal commission to perform work; any such commission begins only when the company issues a written proposal and the client accepts it under section eight below.
A visitor who does not agree with a line in these terms should stop using the website and should not send sensitive drawings through the contact channel. Continuing to open pages after a change to the terms counts as acceptance of the changed version where the change is plainly flagged at the top of the website footer.
If a line in these terms is held to be unenforceable by a competent court, that line is cut out and the rest of the terms keep standing on their own. No single invalid line is allowed to pull down the whole agreement, which is a rule the company wants just as much as the client does.
3. The parties and the words used
MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD is the company, and MGD Construct is the short trade name under which the site and the marking service present themselves. Officially the company writes MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD in contracts and these terms use that full name for the responsible legal party.
The client means the organisation or the individual placing a commission, and the client team means the named people the client sends into the shared folder. A deliverable means any drawing, schedule, model exchange, cost bridge, dashboard output, method statement, log or report the company issues under a commission.
The yard and the drawing room both mean the company floor at 211 St. Marys Road, LONDON - N9 8NR, United Kingdom (GB), where the marking tables and the compliance files live. A working day means a normal Monday to Friday day in London apart from bank and public holidays. These short names shorten the rest of the text without changing the meaning of the full party.
4. Scope of the services
The company offers six documented service lines, each described on the service deck of this site: structural steel detailing, site supervision systems, cost estimation platforms, BIM coordination, safety management tools and progress reporting dashboards. Each line is a defined scope with named deliverables and a named checking step.
Detailed descriptions sit on the services page and form part of these terms when a proposal refers to them. The company does not silently expand a scope: work outside the six lines, such as a full structural design to Eurocode or a permanent load calculation, is only done where a separate written agreement names it and sets a separate fee.
The company keeps the right to refuse a scope it cannot do honestly, for example a model review of a project where the geodetics are unverified or a safety pack for a site the client will not let it visit. Turning down work it cannot back is a service to the client, and the terms record that right openly.
5. Eligibility and lawful use of the site
A visitor must be able to form a legally binding promise under the law of England and Wales to accept these terms on their own behalf or on behalf of the company they work for. The website is intended for business users operating in fabrication, erection, engineering, asset and property environments in the United Kingdom and where international work is lawfully possible.
Each visitor agrees to use the site lawfully: no one may scrape the drawing room down, bypass its security, introduce a virus through a form, or use the channel to send material that is unlawful, defamatory, secret or infringing of another right. Anyone acting those ways gives the company the right to block an address without warning.
The company runs the site on ordinary hosting and does not promise it will be free of interruption. Planned maintenance and the repair of an incident can pause pages briefly, and the company gives reasonable notice where it controls the timing rather than letting a pause surprise a downloader.
6. The client responsibilities
Steel coordination is a shared discipline, so these terms name the duties that rest on the client rather than pretending one side carries everything. The client supplies the current model scope, the verified grid or setting out detail, the member naming the client wants to keep, and the engineer records a connection needs.
The client sends this works information in a form the company states it can read and gives the drawing room a single point of contact who holds the authority to answer a question. Where the client runs several trades, the client names which trade answers a clash call so the drawing room never waits for a meeting to start.
If the client fails to give a prompt instruction or withholds a decision, the programme moves later by the period of that delay. The company records the date an instruction was needed and the date it landed, and the client accepts that a delayed answer carries its own cost rather than landing silently on the drawing room deadline.
7. Proposals and estimates
A proposal from MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD tells a client the price, the issues, the deliverables and the assumptions the company is working to. Estimates are marked as such and are not an order; they state a basis so that when the drawing room quotes a value the client understands the set it covers.
Most proposals split work into an agreed fixed price for a named set of issues and named hours for coordination meetings, so a client can see where the cost stops moving and where it is an open book. The company quotes in sterling unless the client and the company agree another currency in writing before the order.
Every proposal carries a validity period, usually thirty days, after which the company can refresh rates to match a changed market. A client who asks for a proposal does not pay for that request; the company regards a question as the honest start of a conversation rather than a billable event.
8. How a commission is formed
A commission is formed by the matching pair of a written proposal and a written client acceptance of full scope and fee. A signed copy, a purchase order that cross refers to the proposal, or a clear return letter each count as written acceptance, and the acceptance date becomes the start date of the commission.
Verbal agreement alone does not bind this company. A client who wants to start before the paper lands can ask for a short goodwill start, and where the company agrees it repeats in writing that such a start carries the same terms while the paperwork catches up.
Purchase order terms that clash with this page do not automatically replace these terms. Where a client order carries different clauses the company raises the difference within its acceptance letter, and only a term both parties put in writing overrides the standard text that appears here.
9. Fees, invoicing and payment
Charges for a fixed-price issue are due against the milestones the proposal states, usually stage payments on issue for coordination, on issue for construction and on handover. Time-based work bills monthly in arrears on the rate card inside the proposal, and out-of-pocket courier and model viewing costs pass through at cost with the receipt.
An invoice is payable within thirty days of its date unless the proposal names a shorter credited terms window. Payment runs by bank transfer to the account the invoice states, and the company does not hide a card mark-up or ask for cash. A VAT note appears where UK value added tax applies to the supply.
A client who contests a line should pay the undisputed part and raise the dispute in a note. Late payment carries the interest the law of the United Kingdom allows, and repeated arrears give the company the right to suspend active issue work under section twenty and rejoin the live issues in order once the account is clean.
10. Variations and change orders
Construction produces legitimate change: a pier moves, a headroom grows or a site sequence shifts. Each change to an agreed scope is now recorded as a numbered variation with a description, its effect on price and its effect on the programme, so nothing happens in the margins without a name.
MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD prices a variation against the same rate card used for the base scope. Where a variation is urgent the company gives an early oral figure as an estimate, then confirms the written variation and the adjusted total before continuing to mark that member.
A client still owns the power to cancel a variation before the drawing room starts the changed set. Where several variations stack, the company keeps a running ledger so the client always sees the moving total rather than receiving five small surprises at the final account.
11. Delivery, format and checking of work
Deliverables issue in the open formats the proposal names, typically Portable Document Format for review sheets and a native model or spreadsheet format for coordination and ledger work where the client needs the editable version under the licence in section fifteen.
The drawing room checks every sheet against its own gate before release: a geometry pass, a schedule cross-check and a cosmetic run to catch a stray text. That internal check is why the company can sign a shelf-issue rather than hand a client a set for the client to debug, and the client should always report a suspected error under the complaint route below so the gate is tested.
A deliverable arrives at the agreed shared location, and the issue date is the date recorded on the company dial rather than the date a slower mailbox delivers. A client who needs a physical sealed set can ask the desk, and the company ships it at cost with a dated waybill.
12. Programme and delay
The company gives a realistic programme in each proposal rather than a heroic one, because an honest completion date builds more trust than a fast false one. Milestones name an issue date and the dependent information without which that date slips by a fair extension.
Delay caused by the company is answered with a revised working date and, where a project genuinely suffers, a concrete plan to recover capacity at the drawing room rather than an apology alone. Delay caused by a client, a regulator or a model supplier extends the programme by the actual days of that delay under the client duties in section six.
The company does not conceal a slip. When a date moves the drawing room tells the client the moment it knows, names the cause and shows the recovery, keeping the whole mark plan honest from the first week to the last issue.
13. Standards, care and the warranty that applies
MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD carries out the six service lines with the skill and care reasonably expected of a competent computer integrated systems and steel coordination house in the United Kingdom. The company keeps a documented internal check and works to the current British standards and the notes the design team issue for fabrication practice.
The company warrants that, for a period of six months from each construction issue, a sheet it issued is free from error in the geometric connections, member sizes, ends and weld sizes that a competent detailer controls in its own scope of work. This warranty does not cover an error that reaches the company in the client works information, and it does not replace the engineer of record responsibility for structural adequacy.
To claim under the warranty the client must raise a written notice with the specific sheet, the job and the nature of the error. The company then corrects the sheet at no charge within a reasonable time, and correcting a genuine sheet error is the remedy rather than a reason to argue about whose fault it was.
14. Intellectual property
Copyright, database right and any model right in the deliverables the company creates remain the property of MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD unless a specific assignment says otherwise and names a fee in exchange. The effort of building a ledger and a dashboard is worth protecting like any shop skill.
The company keeps the rights in its own internal tools, rate card, method statements and software templates, even when an output printed from those tools carries client marks. A client buys the outputs and a licence to use them under section fifteen, not the underlying drawing-room machinery.
Nothing in these terms assigns from the client the design information, the engineer analysis or the architectural content the client brings to the job. Each party keeps what it brought and licenses what it needs so the shared build runs on rights that are clear at the first issue rather than unclear at the last.
15. Licence to use the company deliverables
On full payment of the relevant invoice the company grants the client a perpetual, non-transferable licence to use the deliverables for the named project, including the fabrication, erection, procurement, maintenance and the lawful reissue of elements within that one project development.
The licence does not allow the client to strip a logo, resell a model library or reuse a cost mechanism for a development run by a rival unless the named project genuinely expands. Where a client wants wider use, for example a model detail reused across three plots, the company grants a wider licence for a modest further fee and a simple note.
This licence is conditional and is worth a plain sentence: if a client does not pay, unpaid warnings stand, a reseller lifts a set or a competitor is handed the ledger, the licence stops and the company can ask the court to stop the misuse in addition to ordinary damages.
16. Confidential information
Both parties treat the design data, technical content, commercial terms and strategy each passes to the other as confidential for the term of the agreement and for five years after it ends. Confidentiality covers the marks, the costs, the site diary and the identities inside a tender file, whether they live on paper or on the dashboard.
Each party may share confidential content only with its own staff and advisers who need it for the project and who accept the same duty. The company will not show one client marked set to another, and the client will not shop the company rate card around to renegotiate mid-job without a route back.
Confidentiality does not cover content that is public through no fault of either side, that a party develops independently, that a regulator or court lawfully requires, or that the other party puts in its own public claims without objection. Each side protects the other secret it wears as a working habit rather than as a line in a drawer.
17. Data protection and the privacy promise
Where the company handles personal data, the data protection promise in the separate privacy policy on this site forms part of these terms. Both documents sit in the footer so an enquirer can reach the handling rules in one click, and the terms do not pretend to protect data while the policy quietly disagrees with them.
The privacy policy answers what the company collects, why, for how long, who supplies processing, and which rights an individual holds. Nothing in that policy is reduced by a term in this page, and where a specific clause under a commissioned agreement holds a stricter line, the stricter line governs the shared file.
Questions, subject access requests or incident reports route to the contacts in the final section of this page and in the privacy policy, and a written confirmation follows any verbal promise so that data promises match the same evidence culture as a fabrication sheet.
18. Liability, exclusions and the limit on damages
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes a liability that the law of the United Kingdom does not allow to be limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or liability for fraud. The company holds no sympathy for a clever clause that hides a man falling off a frame, and these terms are written accordingly.
Subject to that protection, the company total liability to a client for any claim arising from a commission is limited to the fees the client paid the company for the deliverables giving rise to that claim. The limit exists because a drawing folder with a modest fee must not carry the replacement risk of the whole building it helps to raise.
The company is not liable for loss of profit, loss of production, loss of a contract opportunity or indirect loss of any kind that falls outside a direct defect in the specific work, and the client is best protected by raising a genuine defect early through the complaint route, where a correction costs nothing, than by storing it up for a final claim.
19. Indemnity given by the client
The client agrees to hold the company harmless from claims that arise because the client provided incomplete or falsely permissioned works information, instructed the drawing room to a knowingly dangerous detail, or reused a deliverable on a site beyond the licence in section fifteen.
The indemnity extends to third party claims brought against the company that rest on content the client supplied without the right to supply it, such as an engineer analysis the client never owned or a building model it copied from a neighbour plot. The client indemnifies on the ordinary principle that the person who brings a poisoned file carries the poison.
An indemnity claim is not a blank cheque. The company must notify the client promptly, must give the client a chance to take the defence, and must not settle a claim on the client behalf without consent. Fair process runs both ways even inside an indemnity that leans toward the company drawing room.
20. Suspension and termination
Either side can suspend the active run of a commission by giving written notice with a reason, pausing new issues while settled milestones are paid. During a suspension the company keeps the records safe and answers a genuine safety query without the clock running hard against a client.
Where the company or the client commits a serious breach and does not fix it within twenty one working days of a written notice, the injured side may terminate the commission in writing. Termination can also follow insolvency, a receiver, an unremedied failure to pay, or a force majeure that runs past sixty days.
The company may not walk away from work it has accepted without returning the issue position, and the client may not use a termination excuse to keep a copyrighted deliverable it has not paid for. Both rules keep a shutdown honest about who owes what and who keeps which file.
21. Consequences, retention and handover on end
On the end of a commission, whether by completion or by termination, the client pays for the work issued and accepted to that date, and the company issues within twenty working days the deliverables produced for the stages paid, so no paid labour is left sitting in the shared folder as a hostage.
MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD keeps its working copy of a client set under the retention rules in the privacy policy, in case a safety trail or a regulator query needs the dates behind a record. Retention does not give the company the right to build a rival library from one client mark set.
A final close-out note records what issued, what is excluded, what remains in the shared folder and who holds which handover. The note is dated and signed off by the named lead so the project meets a clean closing flag rather than trailing a queue of unanswered stages into the future.
22. Force majeure and events outside control
Where an event beyond the reasonable control of a party stops the sensible running of the work, such as a serious storm, a transport halt, a power failure, a regulator action or a wide industrial action, that party need not be in breach while the event lasts and for a fair recovery period after it.
Force majeure does not excuse a failure that a party could have planned around, does not stop a payment already due before the event, and does not remove the annual care a party owes once the crisis clears. A party relying on the clause must notify the other and give a realistic date when work may resume.
Where a force majeure event runs past sixty days either side may bring the affected work to a managed end under section twenty, with the records returned and the work delivered to that date settled fairly. A fire in a drawing room is painful enough without adding a fight about whose wall collapsed.
23. Complaints and how disputes are resolved
A complaint about a defect, a schedule, a bill or a handling decision should start at the yard desk by email to chat@mgdconstruct.buzz or by telephone on +18148769323. The company answers a complaint within ten working days, names the person looking at it and keeps the complainant informed as the file is reviewed.
The company prefers a dispute to end in a conversation and a correction before a lawyer hears of it. The parties agree to attempt an honest settlement meeting within twenty working days of a written dispute notice, and the company will not hide behind that meeting to delay a genuine safety question a day.
Where no settlement is found the dispute comes to the courts of England and Wales as section twenty five states. This clause does not stop an injunctive route where a licence is being broken or a set is walking to a rival, because a stop on misuse cannot wait for a mediation diary to open.
24. Entire agreement and severance
These terms, the privacy policy, the service deck descriptions and the numbered proposal a client accepts form the entire written agreement between the parties for a commission. Neither side relies on a promise made outside those documents, and each recognises that reliance belongs in writing where it can be examined.
If a competent court holds that a term is invalid, illegal or unenforceable it is severed from the remainder, and the rest of the terms continue in full force so that one damaged clause does not destroy an otherwise sound working relationship between the parties.
The headings in this page are for reading convenience only and do not change the meaning of any clause. A failure to press a right at one moment does not waive that right later, and a waiver of a clause in one place never covers a different breach in another.
25. The governing law and jurisdiction
These terms and every commission under them are governed by the law of England and Wales, which the parties choose freely given the registered office on the company documents. Any dispute that is not resolved under section twenty three is submitted to the courts of England and Wales, which hold exclusive jurisdiction for the matters these terms cover.
This jurisdiction also protects the client interest in consistency. Because the drawing room, its contracts and its professional indemnity cover all sit under English law, one governing standard lets a fabricator in another part of the United Kingdom or Europe predict the outcome instead of discovering a legal gap at the worst moment.
The company does not use these rules to dodge overseas work. A client abroad is welcome under the same terms, with the modest gap that rights are judged on the governed law and venue just named rather than in the client home court, a division recorded plainly so nobody learns it later and calls it a surprise.
26. How to contact the company about the terms
A question, a complaint or a requested change to a commission is best written in full to the office at 211 St. Marys Road, LONDON - N9 8NR, United Kingdom (GB), or emailed to chat@mgdconstruct.buzz with the word change or complaint in the subject so the envelope is routed to a named hand.
The direct business telephone line is +18148769323. The caller who lifts that number reaches the yard desk staff who brief the drawing-room lead within the same working afternoon, and a written confirmation returns so that the position taken on that call can be checked, kept or challenged in one clear thread.
Finally, these terms are meant to be useful in a hurry and exact when it matters. MGD CONSTRUCTION LTD would rather a client asked an early question than banked an early wrong assumption, and the desk answers the former with relief and the latter with its collected records, because straight reading is how a long steel job ends with both hands clean.
