Description: The construction industry plays a major role in the economy of any country. Construction helps in the advancement and modernization of a country. While it has a cozy relationship to monetary growth, it does not concur that giving motivators and expanding spending on projects fundamentally lead to financial growth. Over the years, literatures have been written on claims. Most discussed topics in these literatures include causes of construction claims, disputes resolution/avoidance, analysis of time impact claims and assessment of construction changes. Majority of this literature are results of research works carried out in Europe or North America, though very significant research have been conducted in the Middle East. An examination by [14] created 13 relieving measures to improve time execution and 15 measures to improve cost execution of construction projects in Malaysia. However, this investigation did not explicitly audit or examine the viability of the relief measures as they just gave general proposals or recommendations which are not explicit for the endless supply of the examination. Besides, this type of study has never, been carried out in the study area. This is the gap in research and knowledge this chapter intends to bridge. It is against this background that this study intends to check the adequacy and effectiveness of measures in mitigating the impact of claims on building construction projects with the intent of providing an insight and an understanding on the measures in mitigating the impact of claims on building construction project in Abuja, Nigeria.
