After the construction team experienced delays due to a steel collapse, Trauner was called in to assist the mechanical subcontractor with getting the mechanical work back on track. Trauner provided complete resource loading for the as-planned schedule; identified critical delays to the work; prepared a completion and recovery schedule to meet the project completion date; and integrated change orders and the steel collapse in the completion and recovery schedule. Trauner also performed a constructability review and delay analysis.
