description | Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia (CIDB) is responsible for promoting
Industrialised Building System (lBS) in Malaysia. IBS which involves industrialised
production of building elements or components as well as erection and assembly of these
elements into desired building structure through mechanically using as little in-situ
construction as possible, is as an alternative to the conventional system. Conventional
forrnwork system is somewhat unsustainable as it always associates with low quality and
productivity, high risk on workers safety, and excessive reliance on labours. On the other
hand, IBS forrnwork system known as its systematic construction procedure, high quality
of work, less workers and time needed to complete one cycle of formwork process, which
is more sustainable. This study focuses on comparing sustain ability ofIBS formwork
system to conventional formwork system. A survey has been conducted by distributing
questionnaires and carrying out site survey on the selected construction sites which deal
with formwork for both systems. Most of the respondents indicate that IBS formwork is
more sustainable compared to conventional formwork due to the increasing number of
repetitive used by 76.5%, reducing construction waste by 70%, increasing quality of
work, reducing number of manpower by 70.1 % and reducing the environmental effects
on site. Based on the data analysed, IBS formwork construction is practising more
sustainability aspects of construction compared to conventional formwork. |
