dc.description.abstract | In Sri Lanka there are many building projects
which are either incomplete or simply neglected. It is
challenging for any country to see significant development
if its construction industry is inefficient. This is especially
true for nations where numerous initiatives are frequently
abandoned. Around the world, projects are still being
abandoned. In Sri Lanka number of abandoned projects has
increased. Structured questionnaires and interviews and
comprehensive literature survey guided the study. The
responses were composed via e-mail and interviews. There
were 50 responses from questionnaire survey and 10
interviews including project managers, architects and chief
Quantity surveyors which, were chosenat random. Using
SPSS, these statistical data were examined using correlation
and regression techniques, and content analysis was used to
evaluate the interviews. The findings demonstrated that
there is a strong correlation between the risk indicators and
the project abandonment. The findings and
recommendations that were gained from this study can be
applied for reducing the abandonment of building
