Sometimes we get to watch the failure of the buildings, skyscrapers, roads, and bridges, and the chief reason behind is the low-quality construction.
The factors that lead to substandard construction are listed below:
- Scarcity of knowledge
The first and foremost reason behind shabby construction is the lack of deep insights of development. This discipline requires excellent knowledge of materials, technical, and structural expertise.
But inaccurate proportions of the materials, flaws in the designs, and lack of technical expertise lead to trivial mistakes.
- Lack of planning
The construction works require proper planning of the project. Last-minute and poor planning brings out the shabby construction. For instance, changes in the design, construction strategies, and deals with the vendors and suppliers at the last moment cause severe issues.
- Substandard materials
Not to mention, the use of low-grade materials also holds accounts in poor quality construction. For instance, constructing materials, such as lumber, steel, clay, concrete, sand, etc. if damaged or low quality, ultimately constitute unpredictable hazards and earlier failure of the structure.
- Site supervision & Management
Inadequate site supervision and overlooking of the safety measures participate in low-quality construction as well. Moreover, improper Management leads to slow and faulty construction.
- Overlooked Auditing
Another factor is the absence of testing and auditing of the sites and designs and ignoring the technical tests' results.
Testing of the practicability of the project is necessary so that the technical and structural issues can be avoided during the establishment. Regular auditing and thorough survey can save from future unpleasant repercussions.
- Communication gap
Less communication and communication breakdown or delays between the clients and the company can be one of the factors that cause low-grade construction.
- Undexterous Labor
The inefficiency of the workers causes drastic problems. Incompetent staff and labor, even with the new tech machinery and advanced techniques, cannot provide quality development.
