Abstract:

Abstract: The occurrence of time and cost overrun has become quite significant in a majority of construction projects in India, which is negatively affecting the GDP and potential development of nation. As per the statistics of project cost and duration in March 2012, 179 projects out of 555 projects of worth 150 Crore INR have been facing cost and time overrun and others are at the very high risk, with the total construction cost overrun of 1.23 Lakh Crore INR. (Times, 2013) The time and cost overrun of the construction projects results in overextension of the time and finance of the client w

However, the effect on project costs and time overrun of variation order has yet to be identified. This study evaluates the impact of variation orders on the cost and time off in the Sulaimani governorate.

Abstract:

Cost overruns are frequent in the construction industry. They become greater the more the construction project is delayed. In developing countries, this situation is recurring and constitutes a significant financial problem. In a time-overrun context, our objective is to find a method that can enable us to reduce the delay while minimizing the subsequent cost overruns. We thus developed a mathematical model named CCOMTOC (construction cost optimisation model in time-overrun context). The model was tested and results reveal that the reduction of cost overruns is effective. We showed that in a t

Abstract:

Construction project cost overrun is a common problem in the construction industry. The cost of construction projects is thought to have increased by approximately 33% on average. Several types of research on construction project cost overrun have been conducted and these generally rely on historical data. However, whilst each project has its own project characteristics and cost trend, real-time project cost data are more reliable to forecast its own cost trend. This paper proposes a real-time hidden Markov chain (HMM) model to predict cost overrun risk based on project-owned cost performance

Cost overrun is often a challenge in the construction industry due to its complex nature and inefficient project management. Despite extensive research, cost overruns persist in construction. Hence, to minimise these challenges, factors attributing to the cost overrun need to be identified. A country-based assessment is needed since these factors vary from nation to nation. Research conducted almost two decades ago has identified the key cost-related factors influencing cost overrun of Sri Lankan building projects as variation, extra work, fluctuation of price and currency, day works and other

Abstract:

In the Indian scenario construction industry facing a major problem is cost and time overrun. Effective time performance and cost performance are very important to execute the project in a successful manner by keeping them within the prescribed schedule and cost. Overall cost and duration of construction projects affected by the effective resource selection factor. This paper's objective is to rectify the improper selection of resources by a programming tool. Field survey and codebook study did collect the needed data to feed in the programming tool. The prepared tool gets distributed and

Abstract:

The construction industry in Malaysia is very important for creating employment, both directly and indirectly. It faces two repeated problems during the construction stage: slippage of project-schedules, i.e. time overrun and overrun of project cost; to the dislike of owners, contractors and consultants. This paper studies the time delay and cost overrun factors for Design and Build D&B projects in Malaysia. A Questionnaire was used to collect data from practitioners and analyse the responses and rank the factors and groups on overall view of the contracting parties. Identified risk factor

Abstract:

The complexity of a project often causes differences in what has been planned and its implementation in the field, resulting in delays and cost overruns. The successful implementation of a construction project is the target and expectation of the project owner and contractor, who has an effective time with a budget that is according to plan. But, in project implementation, there are often problems with the emergence of cost overruns that can cause losses. The purpose of this study was to analyze the dominant factors causing cost overruns in irrigation projects in Aceh Besar District. This stud

Variation orders are a permanent phenomenon in the construction of projects and industries around the world, and particularly in the province of Sulaymaniyah. Where construction industries suffer from variation orders. It includes an amendment of the initial scope of work as in the awarded contract. This study analyses the causes of variation orders and their effects on cost and time of projects in Sulaimani governorate.

Purpose – Drawing on mainstream arguments in the literature, the paper presents a coherent and holistic view on the causes of cost overruns, and the dynamics between cognitive dispositions, learning and estimation. A cost prediction model has also been developed using data mining for estimating final cost of projects. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – A mixed-method approach was adopted: a qualitative exploration of the causes of cost overrun followed by an empirical development of a final cost model using artificial neural networks.

Abstract:

Cost overruns are a global challenge to successfully completing construction projects. Cost overrun has a substantial impact resulting in most construction projects failing to be completed. Several factors have contributed significantly to the industry's decline. The factors were discovered in the literature, assessed, and applied to the construction industry in Pakistan. This study scrutinized and identified the relationships between the factors causing cost overruns in the Pakistani construction industry using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) approach.

Abstract:

Time and price of contracted construction as well as their overrun are among highly pronounced issues in the construction practice. Numerous studies indicate that there is a dependency between these parameters at various construction markets. The paper shows the results of a research conducted on a group of 40 projects related to water supply systems carried out in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina from 2001 to 2012. Collected data, obtained through interviewing chief engineers of construction companies, have been used as input parameters for implementation of single linear regression b

Abstract: In a construction project, time overrun occurs when the work specified in the contract is not executed within the specified time frame and when the entire project cost exceeds for whatever causes, this is referred to as cost overrun. This study aim to analyze these factors that cause above delays in construction projects. A total 47 such factors were identified and classified into 8 segments, which are then indexing by using the method Relative Importance Index (RII).
