A REVIEW PAPER ON: DELAYS OCCUR IN CONSTRUCTION PROJECT IN RESIDENTIAL AND IN COMMERCIAL BUILDING

Time, quality and economy constitute the three main factors in a construction project, of which time plays a significant role in construction. The construction industry is large, volatile, and requires tremendous capital outlays. Delays occur almost in every construction project and the significant of these delays varies considerably from project to project. Delay in any task or operation is a time overrun which influences the completion of the work. The common problems in civil engineering projects all around the world are mainly due to delay in construction. To analyze the reasons for the delay, the researcher conducted an evaluation of time performance of the construction project, adopting the questionnaire, in addition to what was found in previous studies, so as to achieve the main objective of this study. The researcher conducted a systematic search, in a questionnaire to obtain data on the reasons of the delay and then, analyzed the study objectives, which have been successfully achieved.
