Lost labour productivity is a major issue in construction claims. Productivity is the measure of the quantity of work performed per labour hour. There are many influences on productivity, including overtime, weather conditions, lack of capable labourers, restricted site access, out-of-sequence performance, and the simultaneous operation of several trades, to name a few. This book analyzes these types of situations and develops models of productivity-loss calculations. Various empirical and academic studies and models are applied to situations, and multiple graphs and charts are used throughout to assist the reader.
