Abstract:
This study examined specification as a communication strategy in the building industry of Nigeria. It was carried by the use of structured questionnaire distributed to Contractors and Quantity Surveyors and then structured and unstructured questionnaire to Architects who have practiced for at least ten years in the South West of Nigeria. Data collected from sixty-two Contractors and Quantity Surveyors and then forty-three Architects all formed the basis of this study and were analyzed by severity index. The results showed that partial and scanty specifications accompanied building drawings and

<strong>Abstract:</strong> This paper presents the results of the survey of building collapses in Nigeria in general and South East, Nigeria in particular. Several buildings have collapsed in Nigeria, many of which are neither reported, documented nor investigated. Although, the number of reported incidences of building collapses; is only an significant percentage of the overall building collapses that have occurred in Nigeria, the frequency, severity and spread of the reported incidents, are quite alarming. In fact many of these building collapse cases, which are neither reported, documented

Abstract:
PurposeThe administration of a contract by the architect is necessary to ensure the contract is performed according to the conditions of the contract, compliance with related laws and the practices of the construction industry. With the increasing number of housing projects and the limited number of registered architects in the nation, the architect is unable to be hands-on with every project. Hence, the involvement of graduate architects to reduce the workload in building contract administration (BCA) is required. The purpose of this paper is to develop a BCA framework for graduate architects

Abstract:
PurposeConstruction contract administration should be carried out by a person (normally engineer or architect depending on the type of contract) with expert technical knowledge of the construction process, strong leadership quality, highly developed interpersonal skills and an understanding of contractual, legislative and statutory underpinnings. However, due to a shortage of architects, graduate architects have been assigned to perform a partial role. Architectural firms are disappointed with the quality of the graduates and still note that they have to mentor them to be competent for their j

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Indian sub-continent is subjected to many severe windstorms and the Indian coastal belt, especially the east coast is threatened by cyclones that have been known to cause damage to structures. However, the root cause of the damage cannot often be equated to high wind speeds exceeding the standard prescribed design wind speeds; but rather linked to lack of maintenance, poor workmanship, improper standard provision application, and poor standard enforcement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Note that the frequency of occurrence and associated intensity of storms are the key data required to determine
