Sažetak
Applying the constructability concept in the construction industry has proven many benefits in different
projects; however, this concept still lacks usage in Iraq.
Therefore, it is important to encourage usage of the con
structability concept in the construction industry in Iraq.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the factors
that affect constructability in Iraq and then classify them
according to their importance. A total of 37 factors were
collected from an intensive literature review, and they were
classified under the sub and main categories. A survey
was undertaken in two sessions with open questionnaire
and close questionnaire. The results were analysed and
the mean, standard deviation and Cronbach’s Alpha were
obtained. Also, the developed weight was calculated for
each alternative factor. The goal of this paper is to define
the main factors that have an effect on Iraqi’s constructability project in order to avoid issues in future Iraqi projects.
The outcome showed that 34 factors had a major effect on
increasing the constructability percentage in construction
projects in Iraq. The top-ranking factors were structural
frame types, high-strength concrete usage, adjacent infra
structures and adjacent site.
