Dear, I have intentionally allow more time in the early stage of the programme in order to avoid early warning from the architect if there is any delay, and more tight schedule at the later stage. The progress is actually delayed at the early stage due to non possession of some area due to the default of the architect, however, after the completion up to 3/F, the progress had caught up according to the master programme. Then, the architect claim that no EOT will be granted as all the delay has been caught up. i.e. the client had taken all the float in the early stage and put main contractor in a very unfavourable condition. Is the architect correct? Regards, Gary Lo
