ABSTRACT
Fast growing cities in developing countries have become the major contributor of
construction waste which create vast rate of environmental pollution. In this study, a
quantitative research approach was conducted by distributing 121 questionnaires to
respective personals that are related to construction which involve project managers,
architect, engineers and consultants. Factors that contribute to sources of construction
waste were all analyzed using descriptive statistics, RII value and Pearson correlation
was also conducted to ascertain the relationships between the factor that represent the
research questions in the study. The research findings reveals that several factors
contribute to high rate of construction waste include burning method, renovation and
remodel are the factors with the highest RII value of 0.6958 and 0.6066 while the
factors with the least RII value include design of building and availability of materials
with RII of 0.3884 and 0.4247. furthermore, Pearson correlation was conducted to
evaluate the relationship between size of a construction company and method of waste
disposal factors at 0.470, 0.01 and lack of appropriate laws by government/causes of
waste factors at 0.326, 0.01 and between size of organization firm and source of
construction waste factors 0.251 and .006 respectively. Lastly, the factor of reliability
was found at 0.898 which shows that the obtained data from the survey has a good
internal consistency. In order to reduce the rate of waste generation, burning method
of waste disposal is the factor that needs to have urgent attention and recycling method
that have low attention need to be best way of handling waste. That client requirement
need to be address so that they will not be selecting materials that produce too much
waste in construction. Use of prefabricated element is the best measure for waste
control/reduction and use of waste approximation should also be given less priority as
regard to other factors.
Keywords: Construction, Demolition, Recycling, Waste.
