MAXIMIZING REAL-TIME MONITORING FOR EFFECTIVE DELAY ANALYSIS IN BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS WITH EVM SCHEDULING

A bridge is a civil engineering construction that has been used for generations to cross any obstacle below it. There are many conflicts in bridge construction, and they are getting worse every day. A flyover bridge has been constructed to reduce traffic congestion. Project costs may directly rise if there is a delay in completing the work. The act of analyzing a project’s delay and determining its underlying causes is known as delay analysis. A contractual issue at the Zone 3 junction has caused project delays, which have impacted on the project time limit. Delays caused by factors beyond the parties’ control (Force Majeure) and Delays caused by an unbalanced contract. The EVM technique is used for evaluating Bridge Construction, which allows for project tracking. Construction project performance is investigated to determine the possibility of cost and time overruns, as well as the Estimation at Completion (EAC) and To-Complete Performance Index (TCPI) to evaluate how efficiently the remaining financial resources are used. To conduct analysis on the construction project’s performance and identify critical issues regarding schedule and cost, a delayed construction project was chosen as a case study for this project. Delay Analysis was also conducted to determine the causes behind the project’s variance in duration.
