    Hi Aqil

    Extension of time are separate to claims for costs.

    Pacing will not affect an EoT award but it will be taken into account when assessing and prolongation / disruption costs as it is very difficult to prove pacing is not delay.

    Hi Aqil

    I agree that a notice of pacing is good practice but it is rarely done.

    I would suggest my ebook - Principles of Delay Analysis - will give you a good insight into delay analysis procedures.

    It can be downloaded from my website www.expertdelayanalysis.com for £75.00
