Statistical characteristics of cost contingency in water infrastructure projects

Cost contingency is one component of a project’s budget to cater for cost growth. The determination of a project’s cost contingency is a pervasive problem because the amount that is incorporated into an estimate is invariably insufficient to accommodate the cost growth of a project. This study analy...
