What you have here is a concurrent delay situation where the contractor's late work is concurrent with excusable delays. It may end up that you get your EoT for the Tie-ins but no delay related costs. It may be that the Engineer is trying to achieve this result but in a roundabout way. You will need to establish the direct cause and effect of each head of delay on the completion date and then set out your concurrency case.
