Abstract
Lean construction is a new way to manage construction aiming to improve the construction performance by eliminating wastes that don`t add value to the customer. The purpose of this thesis is to study the effect of applying lean construction concept on the construction projects in Egypt by introducing a real case study.
The research problem: Removing all kinds of waste in construction projects to satisfy what customer needs is the basic idea of lean construction. Removing waste from the construction projects reflects to the technological development of the sector.
And then the research aims: Investigating the improvement opportunities in the construction industry, analyzing the material delivery management of an ongoing construction projects, elimination of wastes in construction projects by applying lean principles, investigating organization tools percentage as Technical ability, Management capability and Health & safety and describing risks that facing lean construction by studying the effects of risk that facing team work, total quality management, variability, just in time delivery of materials, and risk facing flow reliability.
Steps of study: The steps can be done by: reviewing the literature of lean construction by introducing lean production and the wastes facing it and how to overcome it. Introducing two real life case study projects to show the effect of lean construction on them. Conducting a questionnaire survey and in-depth interviews with the project participant. Introducing risk facing lean construction and conducting a questionnaire survey with two contractors company class (A&B) to show the final conclusions.
The study concludes: The following conclusions may be drawn from this study: from the two case study it found to be the questionnaire come to satisfy the respondents (strongly agree and agree) is higher than (strongly disagree and disagree). In the two case study the respondents agree that the material delivery management of other subcontractors greatly affects theirs at the construction site. Concerning risk facing lean construction, the mean for the response of the respondents of the two classes (A & B) was found that the maximum response was strongly agree and followed by neither agree nor disagree then agree then strongly disagree and finally disagree. This reflects that the acceptance of the respondents to agree with the questions is very high this means that the questions come to satisfy the respondents.
