Disputes are inevitable in construction projects which predominantly arise from complexity and magnitude of works, multiple prime contracting parties, poorly prepared and/ or executed contract documents, inadequate planning, financial issues, and communication problems. Any of these factors can overturn a project and lead to complicated litigation, arbitration, mediation, time overrun; increased costs, and a relationship breakdown among members of different parties involved. The objectives of this study are to identify the 25 direct and 25 indirect causes of construction disputes in residential building projects. The methodology of the study adopted was a questionnaire survey where the target respondents were clients, consultants, engineers, and contractors. The causes are identified by the severity index method and the AHP method. The analysis of the identified causes indicates that the top five severe direct dispute causes are: contractor's experience, payment delay, main contractor financial problem, communication between site and head office, and qualification of subcontractor respectively. While the top five indirect causes are: accidents that occur during construction, the financial failure of the contractor, Subcontractor problems with the contractor, inadequate contractor experience, and Management –labor relationships.
