Abstract
This study aims to review the legal aspects of construction in relation to the technical specifications applied in building projects, with a specific case study of a five-storey building in Makassar City. Technical specifications serve as a fundamental reference in the implementation of construction projects, and their alignment with prevailing legal and regulatory frameworks is critical to ensure project quality, safety, and compliance. The research investigates how the technical specifications used in the project adhere to national construction standards, building codes, and contractual obligations. Through a qualitative approach involving document analysis and field observations, the study identifies potential legal issues arising from discrepancies between planned specifications and actual implementation. The findings emphasize the importance of legal oversight and standardization in minimizing disputes and ensuring the integrity of building construction. Recommendations are proposed to strengthen the integration of legal considerations in technical planning and execution stages of similar future projects.
