- Description
- The application and use of inappropriate delay analysis techniques for quantifying the effects of delays on construction leads to protracted disputes and increased costs. In October 2002, the United Kingdom (UK) Society of Construction Law (SOCL)published a delay and disruption protocol aimed at addressing the issues associated with the delay and disruption on UK construction projects. One of the recommendations of the protocol was that the "Time Impact Analysis" (TIA) method of analysis be used for the contemporaneous and retrospective analysis and quantification of the effects of delay events on construction projects. Semi-structured qualitative interviews with representatives from the SOCL who were involved in the drafting of the protocol, and representatives from the construction industry and legal profession involved the resolution of construction delay and disruption disputes, was undertaken to determine their opinions of the suitability of the TIA method of analysis for use by Australian construction industry.
