Analysis of Major Delay Factors in Building Project Execution

Gbenga Olaoye
Abstract
Article This study is concerned with the analysis of the extent of contributions to delays and frequencies of occurrence of delay factors in building project. The data used in the study were gathered from records of twenty completed building projects randomly sampled from Lagos, Aba, Owerri, Abuja, Jos, Kaduna and Maiduguri. Statistical methods involving measures of central tendency and dispersion were used to compute the percentage contributions to delay and frequencies of occurrence of the delay factors identified from the data/information retrieved from the records. Result showed that the joint contribution to delays by these identified factors was 70.24% of the total project delays. 29.76% was the joint contribution to delays by other factors (intangible delay factors) which severity could not be quantified. These factors were experienced in all the projects analysed. The conclusion in this respect was that in every project, the extent of contribution to delay by certain delay f...
