Produktbeschreibung

Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, , language: English, abstract: One of the wide ranging problems which construction industry is facing is the fluctuation in prices of construction inputs which is causing most of the projects to be completed at cost much higher than the original contract prices. In the recent past, we have seen significant price escalation occurring not only with the basic construction materials but also with the labor and fuel which creates uncertainty among the participants involved in a construction project. To overcome the effect of price fluctuations, certain methods or contract clauses are desired to deal with this uncertainty. The main purpose of the price adjustment clauses is to allow the contractors and clients to adjust the increase or decrease in prices. In addition to this, it also encourages competitive bidding. The objective of this research study is to study importance of price adjustment in construction contract and analyzing the response of the different stakeholders in construction contracts regarding FIDIC formula and suggesting for improvement. Similarly, identifying different cost element, weightings and determining contingency is also goal of research so that price adjustment contract administration becomes systematic, equitable and with less ambiguity. Recently, the price fluctuation of construction materials and services in Nepal has become severe and very much unpredictable. Most of the contractors in Construction Industry, especially local contractors, are facing strong challenges during bid process due to the high uncertainty of predicting what would happen during the course of the execution of the project. Based on the above explained fact, the research problem has been addressed in this research by conducting diagnostic survey among ten contracting firms working on ADB project, collecting data with the help of questionnaire, distributed to contractors, consultant, client and conducting desk study on ADB projects, World bank projects, Midhill highway and RIP projects under department of Road whose construction were started after 2014 and construction progress was more than 80 %.
