• Differing Site Conditions

  In construction projects, Differing Site Conditions (DSC) are physical conditions encountered during the construction of a contract of work that were not known to exist at the time of bidding. DSC makes up one of the single biggest causes of disputes and can lead to schedule delays, cost increases, and dangerous working conditions, as well as invalidating design assumptions. Exponent provides objective analysis regarding all aspects of DSC claims with our multidisciplinary team of engineers, geologists, construction management professionals, schedulers, and estimators.
