Impacts to Labor Productivity in Steel Framing and the Installation and Finishing of Gypsum Wallboard
Labor productivity is the single greatest variable affecting the construction contractor's cost of production and profitability. External impacts to labor productivity have been the subject of numerous books and studies - and litigation - over the years. Now, there is a study focusing specifically on the steel framing and the installation and finishing of gypsum wallboard.
This study tested 38 separate variables generated by a committee of industry experts against labor productivity in a sample of 226 projects. All of the major productivity variables tested were negatively correlated with actual achieved productivity for framing and the installation and finishing of gypsum wallboard. This study clearly shows that the presence of certain factors will result in a reduction in labor productivity in the steel framing and the installation and finishing of gypsum wallboard.
If you are in the steel framing or gypsum drywall business, this study could help you get compensated for your productivity losses due to factors out of your control.
