Construction machinery hire rates deviation in Malaysia: an inflation rate effect analysis
Abstract Machinery has been used in the construction industry in both small- and large-scale projects for a long time. Machinery is one of the main resources of any construction projects and rates deviation within the hiring of the machinery can result in cost overrun of the project. This study has...
