Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Construction Delay Analysis Techniques—A Review of Application Issues and Improvement Needs

It is noteworthy that the need for analysts to take resource allocations into account in their delay analyses is becoming an increasingly vital requirement. For instance, in the UK case of McAlpine Humberoak vrs McDermott International [29], the judge disapproved of the plaintiff’s delay claim submissions on the basis of not giving consideration on how resource usage was planned for and how they were actually utilized during construction. Wickwire [43] also reviewed legal decisions in the US and noted that “in any analysis of project delays, the contractor is required to take into account realistic resource leveling”.
