Abstract Recently, the number of project delay-related claims and disputes in Korean construction projects has been increasing rapidly. This suggests that the domestic construction contract practice, which has traditionally been superior to the client, is changing into a mutually balanced relationship among the contracting parties. The project delay analysis selects the application method according to the type of schedule approved at the start of the construction and how the schedule management was performed during the construction. The most important prerequisite for project delay analysis is that a complete CPM schedule agreed at the beginning of the construction is prepared and the actual progress of such schedule is well documented. This study is about applying the project delay analysis methodology of a case where a contractor claims damages to a client while constructing a large new private building construction project. In this study, it is determined whether the application of the as-planned analysis method is appropriate to the incomplete CPM schedule and then proposes the as-planned vs. as-built analysis method based on the new standard as an alternative. Next, apply the as-planned vs. as-built analysis method to the schedule in the case project, and then compare it with the result of the as-planned analysis method. The purpose of this study is to suggest a project delay analysis method suitable for the domestic schedule management practices, so that it can be used as a meaningful reference in project delay disputes and litigations of domestic construction projects.
