Every year defects in the UK construction industry cost at least £1 billion to repair or rebuild. Some of the defects will be the result of poor communication, for example:
A poorly detailed drawing.
Operatives being given incorrect instructions.
Technical information not being available.
Improvements in communication should result in cost savings, an increase in the quality of the build and a reduction in the level of defect occurrence.

In addition, guidance on communication and a training package can both be downloaded from this site. The training package illustrates how the importance of good communication can be taught to bricklaying students. However, it can readily be adapted to fit with the training needs of other construction students.
