Abstract :
This study examines structural defects in mass housing complexes in Shiraz and identifies the factors influencing their occurrence. Given the importance of construction quality and its impact on the lifespan of buildings, this research aims to propose effective solutions for reducing defects. The goal of this study is to identify and analyze the factors contributing to structural defects in mass housing complexes in Shiraz. The research follows a qualitative approach, and data has been collected through questionnaires, interviews, observations, and archival research. The study population includes project managers, engineers, and construction industry experts, with sampling conducted using a purposive method. The collected data has been processed and analyzed using MaxQDA software and statistical tools. The research findings indicate that low-quality materials, inadequate supervision, and time pressure to complete projects are key factors leading to structural defects. Additionally, insufficient employee training and adverse weather conditions play a significant role. These findings can contribute to improving construction quality and reducing defects in future projects. By implementing training programs for workers, utilizing high-quality materials, and ensuring continuous supervision of construction processes, maintenance and repair costs can be minimized.
