Based on the literature review, there are eight root causes of variation are found to be design errors, client requirement, contractor proposed change, construction change, discrepancies between work and statutory, extra work, design change and plan deficiency. Meanwhile, the effect of variation order as found in the study are cost overruns, time overruns, professional relations, delay in payment, increase overhead expenses, procurement delay, additional payment for contractor, progress effected without any delay, poor safety condition, dispute among professionals and completion schedule delay. 2009-05 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/15445/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/15445/1/SharifahRuzannaSyedBaharomMFKA2009.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Civil Engineering Faculty of Civil Engineering
