Abstract:
Material waste has been recognized as a major problem in the construction industry. Studies from various sites confirmed that even the materials that are least wasted like glass, tiles, paints etc..represents a fairly certain percentage on construction cost. These materials also have an unhelpful affect on environment. Materials are very important on building sites, and all the materials that are delivered are not used for the purposes for which they had been ordered and disappearance of these materials constitute a part of waste and it has a negative effect on environment and also effects the contractors profitability. This paper mainly deals with the study of factors contributing to material that are least wasted. A questionnaire was prepared and survey was conducted among labors and supervisors. The data collected were analyzed through SPSS (Statistical package for social sciences), factor analysis and multiple regression were carried out to identify the significant factors contributing to material wastage
