EOT Claim analysis in P6

J
Jinny Johny 👤 Member for 18 years 6 months

Hi,

I am working on an EOT claim submitted by the contractor recently. They are claiming for 35 days extension for the project. The project was suspended for 10 working days by client. Even though the project was on hold, contractor was progressing the works to catchup his delays in the other area.

My question is how can I analyze this claim in P6.

What I have done is

EOT Claim over GANTT schedule.

Good day, this is the case:

The contractor is claiming 274 days EOT on a 382 days schedule from NOV2005 to DEC2006. The baseline schedule is a Gantt chart, I.E. not even SS or FF links or lags, just the gantt chart made in excel. 

The question is, if the contract was entitled without a CPM schedule, how can you prove if there is right for extension of time? And if there is right, how do you quantify the amount of impact?

Rain Delay and Concurrency Issues

Dear PP friends,

I would like to hear from the community your point of views about the effect of awarded rain delay days and concurrency.

It is common practice at home for the rain delay be awarded on some rule as to the amount of hours you could work on a day at a given project and no requirement for it to be justified on the CPM Schedule.

As Built Schedule Preparation

P
prabu deva 👤 Member for 19 years 4 months

Hello,

In major construction Projects, after the initial base line is approved, extension of time is being  accorded many times according to delay events  and revised schedule continues to be submitted and approved. Some activities in the initial baseline schedule  are at very high level and in subsequent schedules these are being broken down.

EOT preparation with a very simple baseline programme.

We need to prepare an EOT claim for a project completed almost 3 years ago.

The project is a podium of 3 towers. The podium is divided into 4 parts, and each part has 4 levels. Each part has an area of around 7000 ~ 9000 sq. meters per level. It is enclosed by a non-load bearing wall, floor to floor. Each part has its own contract completion date.

In the baseline programme, yes it is divided into 4 parts. But the consruction of each level was shown in one activity/bar only.

S

Hi

In a schedule with 2 calendars (one with 6 days as working period and another with 7 days are working period ) assignment,on determination of delay period after applying TIA (Time Impact Analysis ) method,the resulting delay period should be mentioned as calendar days or working days?

 

Regards

Shahul

Can the approach to delay analysis in construction be standardised?

 

Delay to construction projects will often result in time and cost overruns. Such claims are at the heart of most construction disputes today, and the effort involved in resolving these claims is not without considerable time and cost to all parties involved.

How to model delays in a single activity, caused by MULTIPLE resources

L
Lord Horn 👤 Member for 15 years 4 months

Dear All,

At the outset, let me apologize if this is in the wrong section. This is my first post, and as such, am new to this wonderful board.


I have a unique problem and I was wondering if someone kind enough can assist me in resolving it. I don't mind a solution for P3 or P6, as long as it works.

Here is the issue:

1. Let me say that my entire project has only 1 activity. Activity A (its just an example) that spans 1 month.

2. 2 resources are on that activity: Resource X and Resource Y (both are humans who will work on this project)

3.

Extension of Time Request

Dear Planners,

The situation I want you all to advise me on is,

  1. We are a group of companies and having a building project in Dubai (UAE) as the main contractor and contractually liable to finish the project on March 10, 2011. Prior to my joining, we were 180 days behind the schedule in foundation (piling & shoring) work and could not get the extension of time for the said delay, which I think due to lack of knowledge and experience.
