Hi Guys/Gals,

I have a confusion about the difference between Window Analysis Method and Time Impact Analysis and also about Time Impact Anaysis and Time Impact Evaluation when use in Delay Analysis.

Please maybe some body out there can explain this jargons.

Thanks.

    Hi KristopherTime Impact

    Hi Kristopher

    Time Impact analysis (UK Definition) is a one off retrospective delay analysis excercise.

    Windows Analysis is the same thing repeated many times in different time slots - even if you know what happened in the following months you have to pretend that you don't know. That makes it useless for forensic work.

    For work in progress the Impacted as Planned method (UK Definition) goes on as the work progresses - that makes it a Windows analysis.

    Best regards

    Hi Barry

    I am not quite sure what you are asking.

    Completed work to the left of the data date has no float because it has finished.

    Uncompleted work to the right may have its float affected by early or late completion of work to the left.

    Since a typical delay analysis focuses on zero float tasks it is only when the available float is remove by late completion of predecessors that they form part of a delay analysis.

    Best regards

    there is no any difference

    there is no any difference just only primary method and derivative method

    please see the following table

    Time analysis methods as per the following table

    General Approach

    Primary Method

    Secondary Derivative Methods

    Additive

    1.Impacted As-Planned

     

     

    ·      Chronological Addition of Delays (one at a time)

    ·      Gross addition (all delays at once)

    2.Time Impact Analysis

    ·       Chronological Events analysis

    ·      Windows analysis

    ·      Contemporaneous  impact analysis

    Subtractive

    Collapsed As-Built

    ·     Chronological insertion of delays (one at a time)

    ·     Gross Insertion (all delays at once)

    ·     Windows analysis (delays in each windows)

    Analytical

    As-Planned vs As-built

    ·    Total time assessment

    ·    As planned vs As-Built windows analysis

    ·    Contemporaneous windows analysis

    ·    Month to month update

    The main paper is Assessing Delay and Disruption - Tribunals Beware 

    AACEi have a very detaild practice note on this topic.
