The Impact Of Latent Defects On The Public
Buildings In Malaysia.
PhD thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
Building defects become more complex issues than what we are thinking and
affected severely to the valuable assets found within the interior spaces when real
defects; the leakage defects occurred. Literature research revealed that compared to
fire or structural defects; building defects provides more problematic scenarios upon
plummeting with seen or latent defects. Eviler anticipated when latent defects arise
during pre, during or post-construction stage. Thus, the purpose of the study is steering
to aim at having nil construction defects. With zero or fewer building defects affected
the exterior or the interior of the building, the quality of the buildings will be at the
highest and impetus the building’s commercial value. Next, the objective of the
research is to control building defects from keep on happening and keep on repeating
them. It’s about time, something needs to be done to prevent it, seriously. Initiated
with the PILOT test, accumulating comprehensive real project data, FGD cyber
sessions, face to face interviews as well as systematic online survey; the research can
accumulate enough amount of quality data eligible to support strong study conclusion.
Finally, the findings measured out that building defects; regardless it’s latent or none;
still play a foremost part in giving nuisance to the building construction players. With
the mammon collection of defects data, the comprehensive and detailed statistical
analysis can be done systematically; thus, proving the suggested outlined hypotheses
and filling out the research gaps.
