Research by the Construction Industry Institute (CII) reveals that direct costs caused by rework average 5% of total construction costs (CII 2005 HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c11#c11 11). Considering that the U.S. construction industry expended $1,502 billion in 2004 for total installed costs (Bureau of Economic Analysis 2006 HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c5#c5 5), almost $75 billion was wasted on direct costs caused by rework in that year alone. Therefore, rework must be considered a significant factor affecting cost performance in the construction industry. Several research efforts (O’Conner and Tucker 1986 HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c23#c23 23; CII 1989 HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c7#c7 7; Davis et al. 1989 HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c12#c12 12; Burati et al. 1992 HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c4#c4 4; Love et al. 1999a HYPERLINK /coo/resource/1/jcemd4/v135/i3/p187_s1?view=fulltext \l c20#c20 20, b HY
