Enter the total float and the delay for each affected activity. The calculator shows the float consumed, the float left and any delay beyond float, as a quick check before a full time impact analysis.
| Activity | Duration (d) | Total float before event (d) | Delay from event (d) | Float consumed | Float after event | Delay beyond float | Result | Remove |

Delay beyond float is the delay minus the positive total float before the event. It indicates a possible delay to completion. It does not account for logic changes, concurrency, float ownership or mitigation, so check it against the updated programme before relying on it.
You enter the activities affected by delay events, with the total float each had before the event and the delay the event caused. The calculator shows the float consumed, the float left, and any delay beyond float, which is an early indicator of delay to completion. It works on figures you type in. It does not read P6 or XER files.
Only positive float can absorb a delay. Delay beyond float is the delay minus that float.
Short answers for planners, claims consultants and project controls teams.
No. You type in the float and delay for each activity. To read float straight from an XER file, use the XER Viewer or the P6 Critical Path Finder, then enter the figures here.
No. The calculations run in your browser. The last figures are kept in this browser's local storage so they are there when you come back, and Clear all removes them.
No. It indicates a possible delay to completion. Entitlement depends on the contract, causation, concurrency, float ownership and the records, and should be shown with the updated programme.
Delays to activities on parallel paths overlap in time, so adding them would overstate the delay to completion. For events on the same path, take the float from the programme as it stood when each event happened.
