Technological developments, the increase in the world population and the rapid change in customer needs have increased the competitive environment in the construction sector. The highly competitive environment makes risk management mandatory for construction companies. Construction projects are exposed to many risks due to their unique structure. A successful risk management requires a realistic assessment of these many risks and the determination and implementation of appropriate strategies. Within the scope of the study, firstly, the risks that may be encountered in construction projects were determined and grouped through expert opinions and literature review. AHP method, one of the multi-criteria decisionmaking techniques, was used to prioritize risks. The strategies that can be taken against the identified risks were determined in line with the expert opinions and the TOPSIS technique was used to choose between the strategies that could be applied. It is thought that the obtained model will contribute to decision makers in risk management in construction projects.
