Abstract

This paper reports an investigation of construction labour productivity described as numerical values. First, a general knowledge is given about labour productivity. Then, the system which is the source of the man hour values in Turkey, is introduced and criticism of it is carried out. To this aim, labour productivity rates of 82 work items were obtained by a questionnaire applied to planning engineers, site managers, sub-contractors, architects and consultants of 32 large-scale construction firms in Turkey. The results were evaluated by one sample t-test, and hence, today's situation of the construction sector in Turkey on labour productivity was displayed.
