Abstract

Differs factors have been identified as the causes of the high rate of Building Project Collapse with little reference to difference types of conflict among building professionals. While some studies have examined possible conflict among professional colleague in building projects, their study was only focused at developing a model to prevent conflicts in general. This study assessed the level of contribution of what is term “Egoistic Conflict†on building project collapse in Lagos state. This study adopted descriptive research design. The population of the study is infinite as it comprises of all stakeholders-home owners, engineers, surveyors, staff of relevant government agencies etc., in the informal Building Projects in Lagos state. Thus, for convenience an online contact of respondents through social medium was used. Using the formula adopted by Sheldon for infinite population, a sample size of 384 was drawn from the population. A random sampling technique was used based on time interval of responses. Data was collected through a self-developed questionnaire. The collected data was analysed using inferential statistics using SPSS (Statistical Package for the social sciences). The findings revealed that, Ego Conflicts explains 45.5% of Building Project Collapse in Lagos State, Nigeria. It was therefore recommended among others that periodic seminars and workshop should be organised for home owners and developers on what is a structural job and the scope of individual discipline in the industry.
