Any delay caused to planned completion by a compensation event is added on to the completion date, even if this occurs through contractor default. Also considers ownership of the float, arguing that the Society of Construction Law's (SCL's) guidance that it should be owned by the project is unsatisfactory, and looks at whether a contractor can claim for loss and expense if it is prevented from achieving its own completion date.
