USLow confidenceMoney at stake

5% of construction cost: Direct rework 'often' 5% of construction cost (framing in a US study of 359 projects) (Hwang, Thomas, Haas & Caldas, 2009; US; low confidence).

What it is. 5% of total construction cost, direct rework only.

Sample. The paper analyses 359 projects in the CII database, mostly US industrial and commercial.

What it is not. The 5% is the abstract's opening framing, not the paper's own measured result, and who bears the cost is not measured.
