Hi All,
I have the following scenario to discuss.
1. In the schedule, through the Path 1 the Employer delay event impact the progress of the Contractor. The Contractor uses heavy machine (high rent cost) to execute the activity. Due to the delay by Employer, it took 1 month more than the planned date.
2. In the mean time, through Path 2 there is concurrent delay from the Contractor which leads to the project completion date. Eventhough there is link between Path1 and Path 2 activity, the Path1 will not be driving.
In normal case due to the concurrent delay by the Contractor, he is not entitled for any prolongation cost.
But due to the huge loss in the rental of heavy machine because of the Employer delay in Path 1, can the contractor claim the money loss on the basis of disruption by Employer (only my guess) or any other terms.
Regards
Kannan
