Course Overview
Project execution and control - Differing Site Conditions, Delay, Time Extensions and Acceleration
Part 4 of 6 dives into several important contract clauses. This course begins by covering differing site conditions. When you discover something on site that is different than the drawings or is unusual, who covers the cost and delay damages? The differing site conditions clause lays the groundwork for these issues. We'll follow by discussing delays on the jobsite and how to assign responsibility for damages. If a delay is warranted, time extensions must be incorporated into the contract. We'll wrap us by discussing the different forms of acceleration.

The title of the course really spoke for itself - it's a "playbook" that presents an overview for differing site conditions, delays, time extensions, and acceleration. However, I personally think that the lecture was way too general in discussion and presentation that it barely made an impact for an experienced project engineer (aspiring PM). Improvement can be through some case presentation or in-depth discussion of contract clauses related to delays and time extension.
