With its recent tourism boom, Vanuatu, a small country in the South Pacific, is experiencing an increasing demand for construction. However, it has been struggling with persistent schedule delays in their construction projects due to a variety of reasons. In an attempt to respond to this situation, this paper aims to identify the major causes of schedule delays in building construction in Pacific island countries, with a focus on Vanuatu. To collect data on the factors affecting schedule delays, face-to-face interviews were conducted. Based on these, seven major causes of schedule delays, as selected by the majority of the participants, were identified and discussed to provide perceptive insights for future improvement opportunities. This paper attempts to help contractors with limited resources better understand the major causes of schedule delay in Vanuatu and achieve better performance in building projects.

건설공사는 프로젝트의 진행 중 내${\cdot}$외부의 여러 조건의 변경이나 사회적 요구에 따라 초기의 계약과는 다른 많은 변경사항이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 변경사항은 프로젝트 추진과정에서 많은 영향을 미치게 되며, 이로 인하여 발생되는 영향은 대부분 프로젝트의 공기지연으로 나타나게 된다. 건설공사에서 발생하는 공기 지연은 기본적으로 도급자의 면책여부에 따라 공기연장이나 지체상금의 부과 등의 결과로 나타나게 되는데 이러한 사항에 대한 발주자와 도급자의 의견이 대립될 경우 클레임으로 발전하게 된다. 클레임에서 가장 중요한 사항은 공기지연일수의 산정으로서 이는 공기지연 클레임에서 가장 중요한 부분이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 공기지연 클레임에서 가장 중요한 자료가 되는 공기지연일수 산정방법의 한 방법으로 계약 초기에 작성된 계획공정표(As-Planned Schedule)와 모든 지연이 포함된 준공공정표(As-Built Schedule including all delays) 그리고 발주자 지연이 제외된 준공공정표(As-Built schedule absent owner delays)를 비교함으로써 각 계약 구성원의 귀책으로 인한 광기 지연일수 산정방법을 제시하고자 한다.

건설공사 계약에서 공기연장 시에는 계약당사자의 귀책에 따라 지체상금의 부과 내지는 연장비용을 지급토록 규정하고 있으나, 그 이행에 있어 당사자의 정량적 귀책구분 등 분석결과에 의해 전형적으로 이행되는 경우는 거의 없다고 할 수 있다. 결국 이는 수행참여자의 계약적 의무이행에 대한 책임회피이며, 향후 잠재된 공기연장클레임 등 더 많은 시간과 비용을 지불해야 하는 분쟁으로 비화될 것은 자명하다 할 것이다. 그 원인으로는 현행의 CPM 네트워크공정표에 의한 공정관리 방법 이 수동적이고 사후적 인 관리로서 공기 연장이 발생한 후, 그 사유 및 기간의 책임분석을 통한 관리로 그 한계성으로 인하여 연장예방 및 클레임해결이 불가능한 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현행 계약자들의 공정관리 수준을 고려하고, 공기연장의 핵심이라 할 수 있는 연장사유에 대한 사전관리를 통한 프로세스 접근방식(Process Approach)의 공기연장사유 관리모델을 제시하여 프로젝트 수행 당사자의 책임의식 고취와 책임관리, 사전관리, 증거관리를 능동적으로 수행 가능할 수 있게 하여, 공기 연장예방 및 당사자의 원만한 클레임해결을 위한 관리기준 모델을 제시하는 것이다.

In almost every construction project, delay is an inevitable yet controllable phenomenon. The Indian construction industry encounters an enormous amount of delays in projects. Delay affects both time and money in the forms of schedule and cost overruns, respectively. Due to impressive and dynamic growth in the Indian construction sector, planned efforts are essential to limit these undesirable delays. On account of the surge in the rate of residential building construction, the task of identification and analysis of the delays in residential projects in India has been attempted by the authors. A questionnaire survey was conducted involving 100 stakeholders. Further analysis included an Importance Index to rank the identified delays, Principle Component Analysis for advanced statistical analysis, and Correlation Analysis to check the extent of agreement amongst stakeholders. Conclusions drawn with reference to the analysed data eventually reflected finance-related issues, as well as labour related problems as the dominating causes of delays. The aim of the research is to provide insight to the construction stakeholders and researchers, on an international scale, with the obtained results.

Change Orders generally impact cost and schedule performance of highway projects. However, highway projects that do not have any change orders also face cost growth and schedule delays. This study seeks to determine the cost and schedule performance of Texas DOT projects by collecting project data for 120 highway projects completed between 2016 to 2020. For the study, we selected project data that has zero or negative change orders which were then grouped and analyzed based on their Project Types i.e., maintenance works; structural works; restoration and rehabilitation works; and safety works. The study found that performance of Maintenance and Safety type projects had less cost and schedule growth among the data analyzed. Statistical tests also found that even though the projects have no change orders, Rehabilitation and Restoration type projects experienced significant schedule growth compared to others. However, the data did not show any significant cost and schedule growth for the projects when statistical tests were performed on overall data. The study concluded that highway projects are experiencing schedule growth even though the projects had no change orders. Results from the study can help planners, engineers, and administrators to gain better insight on how different types of highway projects are performing in terms of cost and schedule and eventually derive appropriate solutions to minimize cost and schedule growth in such projects.

Apportioning responsibilities of concurrent delay to the owner and the contractor is a difficult task, due to the sophisticate nature both in the schedule and in the factors that cause the delay. This research attempts to develop a simplified yet systematic approach that can be used for a fair apportionment of concurrent delay. A concurrent delay is defined herein as when the contractor and the owner have both caused independent critical path delays during the same approximate time period. Incorporating the concepts of windows analysis and critical path method (CPM), the developed approach has three "windowing of delay" steps to quickly apportion the delay in each of these windows, and a fourth step to sum up those apportioned delays to obtain each party's final responsibilities. This developed approach is found to be simple and effective at this stage; it will be tested against real cases in the near future.

With the mounting concerns over environmental issues, green construction is gaining a place in the global construction industry. However, rare research has been conducted to analyze green construction projects, especially in the aspect of project schedule performance. As a result, this study aims to investigate the degree of project delay in green building construction, analyze the factors affecting schedule delay of green building projects, and finally provide recommendations to improve schedule performance of green building project. To achieve the objectives, a comprehensive literature review was carried out, followed by a survey conducted with 30 companies that provided data from 220 traditional and 96 green building projects. The analysis of the responses identified that 15.9% of the traditional building projects were delayed while 32.3% of the green building projects were completed behind schedule. Furthermore, the amount of the delays in green building projects was an average of 4.8% of their planned schedule. The top 5 critical factors that can cause delay in green building projects were identified as: (1) speed of decision-making by clients; (2) speed of decision-making involving all project teams; (3) communication/coordination between key parties; (4) level of experience of consultants; and (5) difficulties in contractors' project financing. Lastly, a list of recommendations was introduced, aiming to reduce schedule delay in green building construction projects based on the observations. This study will serve as s a base for further research on the enhancement of green building project schedule performance.

The construction inspection is conducted by the contractor or construction supervisor after a certain stage of work has been completed. As the consturction inspection task is dependant on construction schedule, however, it is difficult to plan inspection task systematically, resulting in increased supervision costs, delays in construction, and disputes. Therefore, this study aims to integrate inspection work with schedule management to systematize inspection procedures. Firstly, the inspection work is defined based on the construction supervision checklist. Then its relationship with the construction process, required time, and resources for inspection tasks are defined in construction schedule. Lastly, a process management program is used to assess the effects of applying the inspection work and examine changes in the overall construction period and process management. The proposed method in this study can support to plan construction inspection more systematically and to improve the effectiveness of construction quality management.

Airport operations are well-known as a bottleneck in the air traffic system, putting growing pressure on the world's busiest airports to schedule arrivals and departures as efficiently as possible. Effective planning and control are essential for increasing airport efficiency and reducing aircraft delays. Many algorithms for controlling the arrival/departure queuing area are handled, considering it as first in first out queues, where any available aircraft can take off regardless of its relative sequence with other aircraft. In the suggested system, this problem was compared to the problem of scheduling n tasks (plane takeoffs and landings) on a multiple machine (runways). The proposed technique decreases delays (via efficient runway allocation or allowing aircraft to be expedited to reach a scheduled time) to enhance runway capacity and decrease delays. The aircraft scheduling problem entails arranging aircraft on available runways and scheduling their landings and departures while considering any operational constraints. The topic of this work is the scheduling of aircraft landings and takeoffs on multiple runways. Each aircraft's takeoff and landing schedules have time windows, as well as minimum separation intervals between landings and takeoffs. We present and evaluate a variety of comprehensive concepts and solutions for scheduling aircraft arrival and departure times, intending to reduce delays relative to scheduled times. When compared to First Come First Serve scheduling algorithm, the suggested strategy is usually successful in reducing the average waiting time and average tardiness while optimizing runway use.
