Architectural design process errors in the Turkish construction sector and the reasons for these errors

28317

Construction is performed with interdisciplinary cooperation, as it requires the preparation of various projects across numerous areas of engineering and architecture. To ensure that projects are complete and coherent, it is important to manage the design process with concurrent engineering. However, this coordination in the design process is not evident in Turkey, with project errors causing serious issues related to the application process, including conflicts between parties and arbitrary applications. The current study analyzed design process errors, the reasons for these errors and negative reflections regarding these errors in construction. The opinions of architects who were actively involved in construction were recorded through 354 survey forms. The architects were also asked whether the evaluations provided by the building audit firms indicated that there were design errors. A total of 351 survey forms were collected from the firms. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18 software. Results indicated that the architectural projects did not include detailed drawings and that concurrent engineering was not applied during the planning process. This incompatibility among the projects negatively influenced the construction process.
