摘要：Building construction is a process that involves the interplay of many actors in the building industry. One of the actors that play a significant role, from inception to completion of a building project, is the building contractor. However, his performance is greatly influenced by some factors. Such factors include labour, building material, construction methods, equipment, site management and the likes. The study attempts to extensively review such factors that affect the building contractor’s performance and productivity during the construction process. The findings of the extensive review of related literature are cross-sectional in nature. It was discovered that such factors varies from location to location and based on the settlement pattern, culture and social cohesion of people. The study concludes that, for a proper measurement of building contractor’s performance to be achieved, all such factors should be incorporated and earnestly observed.
