Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

In most projects that i have prepared a TIA for, we encountered a very argumental issue.

If we calculated the total delays attributed to the Employer (Owner) and / or any of his agents and found that he has caused for example 6W delay.

and the ministry of puplic works & housing (Governmental body which regulates the construction activities in the country) granted for all contractors an extension of time of 4W.

The actual entitlement (6W) are compensable (for the purpose of this discussion) whereas the 4W granted are non-compensable.

how would the final entitlement schedule best look like? i mean how many weeks would be granted as compensable and how many as non-compensable.

a very common argument is that the contractor already knows (befor entering the contract) that there is an EOT to be granted yearly.

i made a lot of research and came to the fact that this and semilar issues are only presented in Jordan, please advise?
