<![CDATA[This research aims to identify the causes, impacts and mitigation strategies for delays in multi-storey building construction projects. Construction project delays are a common problem that can result in increased costs, reduced reputation, and conflict between stakeholders. This study uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches, involving 100 respondents consisting of project managers, contractors, architects and other stakeholders, and analyzing data through questionnaire surveys, in-depth interviews and case studies. The research results identified five main causes of delays: ineffective planning and scheduling, lack of resources, design and specification changes, financial problems, and weather and field conditions. The impacts resulting from delays include increased project costs, decreased contractor reputation, and conflicts and disputes between related parties. Effective mitigation strategies include increased detail and realism in planning, use of technology such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) and cloud-based project management systems, proactive risk management, effective resource management, and regular training programs for the workforce. This research concludes that by implementing these strategies, delays in multi-storey building construction projects can be minimized, increase project efficiency, and ensure project completion according to the predetermined schedule and budget. These findings provide valuable insights for practitioners and academics in the field of construction management to overcome the problem of project delays.
