Delays are the main reason behind the project schedule overrun these days. The construction industry that is both the contractor and the client have to pay for delays in one or the other means. These delays can be effectively avoided if predictive approach is used from the beginning of the construction project. Indian government is providing support for construction investment, so the completion of project as planned schedule and budget is necessary. Thus, it is prime importance to tackle possible delay factors at the earliest stage to minimize collateral damage, to overcome time overrun during construction and its effects on budget. There are various delay analysis methods available in the construction management, which are considered for assessing the impact of project delays due to various factors. This study proposes one of the mathematical delay analysis methods to identify delays in each activity and focuses on classifying major causes of delays occurred in different phases of project. This will also help in finding delay factors and responsible parties for delay in the project.
