Assessing the Quality Control Implementation in Iraqi Construction Projects and the Use of BIM to Control the Quality of Construction

Abstract

The construction business regards as one of the most important industries in Iraq, contributing significantly to the Iraqi economy. The purpose of this research to assessing the quality of execution in engineering projects (in the public and private sectors) that based on the level of quality of execution control assessment. Construction project management is responsible for quality control in Iraqi construction projects, as well as how far the use of modern Technologies such as building information modeling (BIM) to regulate the quality of implementation. This study was carried out accreditation, and the descriptive-analytical technique was applied by distributing questionnaires via a field survey. In addition, the SPSS program was used in order to process the collected data 60 questionnaires were distributed to contractors and engineering offices. 50 useful questionnaires were received from respondents with an 83% response rate.  The study found that the construction projects in Iraq still suffer from weaknesses in the quality control of construction projects as well as poor Construction Project Management Responsibilities of quality control and that BIM is still not utilized to implement quality in Iraqi construction projects.
