The most significant unanticipated costs on many constructionprojects are the financial impacts associated with delay anddisruption to the works. Assessing these, and establishing a causallink from each delay event to its effect, contractual liability andthe damages experienced as a direct result of each event, can bedifficult and complex.
This book is a practical guide to the process of delay analysisand includes an in-depth review of the primary methods of delayanalysis, together with the assumptions that underlie the precisecalculations required in any quantitative delay analysis. Thetechniques discussed can be used on projects of any size, under allforms of construction contract, both domestic andinternational.
The authors discuss not only delay analysis techniques, but alsotheir appropriateness under given circumstances, demonstrating howcombined approaches may be applied where necessary. They alsoconsider problematic issues including 'who owns thefloat', concurrent delay, early completion programmes, anddisruption. The book, which is well illustrated, features practicalworked examples and case studies demonstrating the techniquescommonly used by experienced practitioners.
This is an invaluable resource to contractors, architects, engineers, surveyors, programmers and delay analysts, and will alsobe of interest to clients' professional advisors managingextension of time or delay claims, as well as construction lawyerswho require a better understanding of the underlying assumptions onwhich many quantitative delay analyses are based.
