Analysis of Concurrent Delays in the Construction Industry
Any construction project is constrained by three main elements; namely time, cost and quality. As such, its success depends on how balanced these constraints are. These elements are interrelated, as any change in one of them will affect the others. Managing delays is very crucial in the construction industry because failing to finish the project on time could affect the stakeholders’ interests. One of the most controversial type of delays in construction is the concurrent delay. The main aim of this research is to perform a comprehensive comparison between the different technics of concurrent delays analysis in order to create an analytical model to identify concurrency delays and the party responsible for them. The different technics presented in this research are the Association for the advancement of cost engineering 2011, the Society of Construction Law 2017, and the American Society of civil engineers 2016 being the most internationally recognized protocols in dealing with construction delays. In addition, different countries’ laws including the Egyptian Civil Law, the English Law and the US Law are also discussed as examples of different courts dealing with concurrency. Moreover, the FIDIC 2017 and NEC3 are also highlighted as standard forms of contracts dealing with concurrency.
