چکیده
This paper reports on the basis of a questionnaire survey of the largest Iranian contractors a perspective of construction risk, and the effective actions taken for the management of such risks, particularly those of time and finances. The study, the first inIran, focuses on the assessment, allocation and management of construction risks. The paper also presents two types of riskmanagement methods: preventive, which are effective at the early stages of the project life, and mitigative, which are remedialactions aimed at risk minimization during construction. The research found that contractors show more willingness to accept risksthat are contractual and legal-related rather than other types of risks. The research results also indicated that the application of theformal risk analysis techniques in the Iranian construction industry is limited. [Farzad Hatamiand and Hossein Behsan.
