Introduction

The construction project is divided into three stages: conception, designing, and construction.
Projects that are finished on time are a sign of an effective construction sector. Construction
time is frequently used as a benchmark for evaluating a project's effectiveness and
organizational efficiency. When a project is finished on schedule, it is deemed successful.
The amount of time needed to finish a project sometimes exceeds the amount of time
provided in the contract. These overruns or time extensions occur for a variety of reasons,
including revisions or mistakes made by the designer, the state of the economy, the
availability of resources, and the efficiency of the project participants. The majority of project
delays often happen during the construction phase, where unanticipated issues (such as
ground conditions, environmental concerns, and constraints) are constantly present. Due to
the fact that construction delays raise project costs overall, finishing projects on schedule
benefits all parties involved. In order to minimize and avoid delays and the associated costs,
it is crucial to pinpoint the true reasons of them.

The length of time needed to accomplish a project is frequently an important consideration

for both the owner and the contractor. The most challenging construction disputes usually
involve delays and failing to complete the work on time. With a critical path network, time
and, to some extent, financial delays brought on by an eventuality can be predicted. Although
the critical path method has been often endorsed in the literature, concurrent delays are rarely
discussed by authors. The causes of delays can be several parties, contracting parties, or
others; as a result, the outcomes and solutions vary from case to case. Concurrent delays are
defined as many delays that take place at the same time, and they have never been simple to
address.

Delayed Project

Construction delays occur when real project progress is slower than anticipated or when
projects are finished later than expected. The most frequent, expensive, complicated, and
risky issue that arises in construction projects is a delay. Construction delays are defined as
time overruns that occur after the contract's expiration date or after the date that the parties
have set for the project's completion. A building contract depends on time. When a contractor
fails to finish the project within the agreed-upon time frame, the delay becomes the project's
actual completion date.
Liabilities

The majority of construction contracts address project delays and interruptions by stating that
the contractor may submit claims for time extensions and cost reimbursement after receiving
proper notification that certain circumstances are "likely to," "are causing," or "have caused"
a delay in completion. Failure to meet project deadlines, estimated costs, and quality
requirements has a number of unanticipated negative outcomes. Usually, when projects are
delayed, the time required to complete them is either increased or decreased, which results in
greater costs. Almost all contracts feature a clause that allows for time extensions for delays
that are beyond the contractor's control.

CONCLUSION

Delays in acquiring materials and equipment for road projects had a minimal impact on the
total projected expenditures of the projects. Care should be taken when extrapolating or
applying these findings to other nations or initiatives, though. Impact costs could be
significantly higher in similar project environments when the same factors affecting
procurement are present. greater for a more challenging project, such as an industrial or even
a building a business initiative. Road Compared to most other project kinds, these projects
require far less supplies and are significantly less complicated.
