Abstract

This paper investigated quality-related project control measures on building construction projects in Delta State. Three research questions guided the study while three null hypotheses were formulated. The design to be adopted for this study is a descriptive survey. The population of this study comprised 157 construction professionals in relevant professional bodies in Delta State. The required sample size from this sample frame was 157, which represents the entire population of each group of professional bodies stated above. Data for this study were collected by means of a structured questionnaire titled “Questionnaire on Quality-Related Project Control Measures on Building Construction Project” (QQRPCMBCP) developed by the researcher. The questionnaire was subjected to face validation. Cronbach Alpha method was used to test the internal consistency of the instrument and an overall co-efficient of 0.78 was obtained. Descriptive statistics of the mean score and standard deviation were used to analyze the data to answer the research questions while a one-sample t-test was used to determine the significant difference between the mean scores. The SPSS (version 24) will be used to analyze the data. The paper found that construction professionals agreed on the quality project control measures for planning, monitoring, and reporting on building construction projects in Delta State. Based on the findings, it was recommended amongst others that construction professionals in Delta State should formalize and standardize project control measures across the construction industry to ensure consistency and uniformity in planning, monitoring, and reporting practices.
