Abstract

Academic research in built environment consists of cognitive, affective as well as behavioural components. Existing built environment research does not reveal much encouraging signs of changes in the way that the construction industry and construction research knowledge is exchanged. Different research dissemination mechanisms have at different performance levels in respect to the way they provided for outcome dissemination. However, the effectiveness and the efficiency are claimed to be relatively fewer and under-developed within the construction industry compared to other industries.
