Forensic Delay Analysis Methods

Forensic delay analysis methods generally fall into four primary categories: impacted as planned, time impact analysis, collapsed as-built, and as planned versus as built. These categories can use additive, subtractive, or analytical techniques. The most commonly used delay analysis methods include impacted as planned analysis, time impact analysis, time slice windows analysis, as-planned versus as-built windows analysis, longest path analysis, and collapsed as-built analysis. Impacted as planned and time impact analysis are prospective approaches while the others are retrospective.

Forensic delay analysis methods

Back in October 2002, the publication of the Society of Construction Law’s (SCL) ‘Delay and Disruption
caused continued debate about the key delay issues that arise in construction projects. The Great Delay
Analysis Debate considered the motion that ‘the time impact method is the most appropriate for the
analysis of delay in construction disputes’, and the experts involved presented divergent views basing
their arguments on different delay analysis methodologies.
Forensic delay analysis methods generally conform to one of four primary categories:
1) Impacted as planned
2) Time impact analysis
3) Collapsed as-built
4) As planned versus as built.
These four main categories have secondary derivatives and can be used in a number of approaches
including additive, subtractive and analytical techniques. The most used methods of delay analysis,
derived from the four primary categories (Including the four primary Categories) are follow:
1) Impacted as planned analysis
2) Time impact analysis
3) Time slice windows analysis
4) As-planned versus as-built windows analysis
5) Longest path analysis
6) Collapsed as-built analysis.
Impacted as planned and Time Impact Analysis are prospective and the remaining are retrospective
approaches.
