ABSTRACT
The construction industry is one of the industries through which physical development of
nation is achieved, and it is truly the locomotive of the national economy. The more
resources, engineering, labor, materials, equipment, capital, and market exchange are
provided through this industry to the national economy. The increasing complexity of
infrastructure projects and the environment within which they are constructed place greater
demand on construction managers to deliver projects on time, within the planned budget and
with high quality. The successful execution of construction projects and keeping them
within estimated cost and prescribed schedules depend on a methodology that requires sound
engineering judgment. To the dislike of owners, contractors and consultants, however, many
projects experience extensive delays and thereby exceed initial time and cost estimates.
Therefore, improving construction efficiency by means of timeliness would certainly
contribute to cost savings for the country as a whole. Efforts directed to time effectiveness
were associated with managing time and materials, which in this study were approached via
investigating time and material wastages of construction projects
