Contents:
Introduction -- Contracts and case law -- Programmes and record keeping -- Delay and disruption -- Loss of productivity -- Acceleration and mitigation.
Summary: Disruption of a construction project is of key concern to the contractor as any delay to the project will involve the contractor in financial loss, unless those losses can be recovered from the employer. It is, however, acknowledged that disruption claims in construction are difficult to prove, usually the result of poor or inaccurate project records, but the cost of lost productivity or reduced efficiency to the contractor under these circumstances is very real.
