Delay and disruption are endemic in the construction industry and result in time and cost overruns. It is therefore essential that delays and/or disruptions are identified early, so that corrective action can be taken.
However, when delay and/or disruption actually occurs, the issue of quantifying the period of delay, the effects of disruption, and the quantification of the resulting loss is complicated.
This book is a practical guide to the quantification of loss caused by delay and disruption. It is relevant to construction professionals in Australia and internationally, and provides a review and analysis of:
However, when delay and/or disruption actually occurs, the issue of quantifying the period of delay, the effects of disruption, and the quantification of the resulting loss is complicated.
This book is a practical guide to the quantification of loss caused by delay and disruption. It is relevant to construction professionals in Australia and internationally, and provides a review and analysis of:
- The planning and programming of a construction project;
- The primary methods of delay analysis; and
- The methods to quantify financial loss caused by delay and by disruption.
- DD Quantum Expert App will be referenced throughout the book to assist the readers’ understanding of how to quantify the contractor’s financial entitlement due to delay and/or disruption;
- References to the ASCE Standard, ANSI/ASCE/CI 67-17, Schedule Delay Analysis (2017, American Society of Civil Engineers) to further explain the various methods of delay analysis;
- More detailed examination of the various methods of delay analysis will be provided;
- Relevant case law since the First Edition published in 2017; and
- Additional case law scenarios throughout the book based on both Australian and international case law.
