Thank you Mike. Same as my though and you have given a good clarity on my knowledge. 

Now got the Point. The EOT would be only for 10 days as the client has delayed & the contractor has delayed + 20 days for which he has to pay the cost.

One more question,

If the Client has delayed the Project. Contract duration was 100 days and because of clients delay it became 110 days to complete the Project. Wouldnt the Contractor be eligible to ask LD Cost for 10 days ?

Thanks

Hi Mike,

I was answering to Jithin's second question, where the delay is only by the Client for 10 days. No delay from the contractor.

Hi Kannan

The contractor cannot claim costs for concurrent delays.

Hi Jithin,

 

If the delay is excusable (by client), the contractor can ask for the EOT as well as the cost of those 10 days.

Hi Jithin

The usual rules of concurrent delays are:

10 days EoT to the contractor - no costs

20 days LAD's paid by the contractor.
