Critical Factors and Mitigating Measures of Construction Delays of Pakistani Building Construction Projects

The construction industry is a significant contributor to a country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). However, construction projects often face many issues especially delay. It is a key contributor to project failure, leading to cost overruns and a decline in quality standards. This study aims to...
