| dc.description | Theoretical and empirical approaches were conducted in Tripoli. The theoretical research focused on materials for reconstruction and their key issues and aspects, while the empirical research was organised around a survey method. Data were collected through a combination of methods: questionnaires targeting consultants and contractors; semi-structured interviews with policy and decision makers, manufacturers and suppliers, and key personnel and firms involved in materials; and a focus group with a number of experts in the construction industry. Additionally, other supportive techniques, such as direct observation and visits to firms and under construction projects, were also used to collect as much data, information and evidence as possible. Excel and SPSS were used for quantitative data analysis, and the PESTLE and content analysis techniques were used to identify problems facing the construction and building materials sectors. The conclusion is that there are many problems restricting the construction and building materials sectors in Libya, | |
| dc.description.abstract | ABSTRACT This study sought to research and investigate the construction and building materials sector, particularly the investigation of the materials for post-disaster reconstruction in Libya, with a particular focus on Tripoli. Its aims were to identify key problems and obstructions associated with the effective procurement of those materials, in order to achieve a better understanding of the materials’ sources, processing and handling, and their impacts on the national economy, the environment, and human health. In Libya, the availability, affordability and quality of construction and building materials appears to be restricted by many problems, negatively affecting the quality of construction work and economic development. The extraction, processing, transport and handling of these materials also has a negative impact on the environment and human health. Consequently, construction and building materials cannot cope with the demands of reconstruction and construction. Furthermore, from 2011 until the time of writing, Libya has suffered massive destruction in many cities due to the war, leading to the suspension of 9,513 projects of various types, and an estimated reconstruction cost (as of 2011) of USD 110 billion. More than half of this amount will be spent on materials. | |
