“…In consensus, consistent with site observations and findings by Rahman et al (2013) and Chew et al (2014), all stakeholders agreed that most common causes of leaking for toilets and wet areas in concrete frame building, regardless of PC or IRC constructions are leaking through cracks, leaking through pipe penetration, leaking through cold joints and Poor waterproofing workmanship.…”

“…With the aim of reducing defects and rework, researchers have focused on a range of strategies such as studies identifying causes, magnitude and cost of both construction and latent defects (Burati et al 1992;Josephson and Hammarlund 1999;Olubodun and Mole 1999;Love and Li 2000;Love 2002;Chew and De Silva 2003;Ilozor et al 2004;Love and Edwards 2004;Chew 2005;Chong and Low 2005). These researchers analyze information in order to get to the root of the problem, by taking into account various perspectives such as the type of defects, their frequency of occurrence, cost of rectification and defect source and origin.…”
