Abstract

When the project is built, the units undertaking projects and the unit in charge of construction will sign the construction contract. In this paper, the dialectical relationship between "fixed" and "adjustable"of contract prices, the differences between lump sum contracts and unit price contracts, as well as the contractual binding of unit prices in unit price contracts are discussed from the perspective of the price types of contracts. Finally, the application of the price types of contracts are studied from the perspectives of selecting the price types of contracts, avoiding unbalanced bids, and analyzing the scope of pricing, so as to provide the basis for the reasonable price of the bidding and tendering.
