Next ESCL-Webinar: As-built Critical Path
Date: 19 February 2025
Time: 6.30-7.30 PM CET
Title: As-built Critical Path
The As Built Critical Path is a term used by many construction practitioners. Very often it is perceived as the “holy grail” of delay analysis in construction because it should reflect the only correct and unique critical path of the Project as executed. However, what does the term As Built Critical Path really mean?
Some delay experts often attempt to retrieve the As Built Critical Path from an as built programme. Is it right?
Usually, a programme is updated regularly at specific status dates (e.g. end of the week or month). “As Built” usually implies a retrospective action by reviewing and recording the actual achievement of the works on the left-hand side of the status date. “Critical Path” usually implies a prospective action by calculating the earliest/latest start and finish dates of the CPM network of tasks in the schedule on the right-hand side of the status date. Therefore, the As Built Critical Path may attempt to conciliate a prospective and retrospective actions at the same time?
