Risk-sharing is argued an important motivation of construction joint ventures. Risk management and risk-sharing are important topics in construction industry. They are also important topics in construction joint ventures. About risk management in construction joint ventures, the previous literatures focused on providing a list of risks in construction joint ventures. There are no literatures focus on risk-sharing or risk allocations between joint venture partners.

If both partners undertake limited liabilities, setting up joint ventures will make the contractors face another risk here it is called as a partner risk. Then the partners not only have to face all the risks which are related to the project, he also has to face his partner risk. Under this condition the problem that which kinds of contractors will agree to set up a joint venture to undertake a project is analyzed in this thesis.
