Abstract

Management of the design phase of construction projects affects the success of the projects. Generally, architects are the main actors who dominate the whole process of the building constructions. In this study, the architects’ design experiences in terms of the effect of design phase meetings on change orders in building construction projects are investigated. As a result of the study, it is concluded that there is no relationship between the frequency of meetings and requested and realized project changes in the design phase. It is also observed that, except for the architects, if the formation of the stakeholders participating in the design meetings can be varied, this can minimize the project changes and possible problems due to conflicting interests, and the participation of different groups to the design phase meetings could be a way of keeping the requests of changes in design and construction stage to a minimum.

Bina Projelerinde Tasarım Aşaması Toplantılarının Değişiklik Emirlerine Etkisi

Abstract

İnşaat projelerinde tasarım aşamasının yönetimi projelerin başarısını etkilemektedir. Genellikle bina inşaatlarının tasarım aşamasında mimarlar tüm sürece hâkim baş rol oyuncularıdır. Bu çalışmada, mimarların tasarım aşamasında gerçekleştirdikleri toplantıların, bina inşaat projelerinin değişiklik talimatları üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, toplantıların sıklığı ile tasarım aşamasında talep edilen ve gerçekleştirilen proje değişiklikleri arasında bir ilişki olmadığı sonucuna varılmıştır.
Ayrıca projede yer alan mimarlar haricinde diğer paydaşların da tasarım toplantılarına katılmaları, proje değişikliklerini ve çatışan çıkarlarından kaynaklanan olası sorunları en aza indirebileceği, tasarım ve inşaat aşamasındaki değişiklik taleplerinin asgari düzeyde tutulmasına yardımcı olacağı tespit edilmiştir.
