Advantages and Disadvantages of IBS 2

IBS components like pre-stressed half slabs and interlocking blocks are better in quality, competitive in pricing, and 30-50% faster than conventional construction methods. IBS is defined as an innovative process using mass-production of prefabricated systems in a controlled, factory environment along with on-site logistics, installation, and systematic planning and integration. While Malaysia is promoting IBS for more effective and efficient construction practices, the application of constructability concepts in IBS and related research in Malaysia is still lacking. This research examines the application of previously defined constructability concepts within the Malaysian IBS industry.

Advantages and disadvantages of IBS

Proven IBS can be explained using BCF for BETTER, COMPETITIVE,


FASTER. We are proud that our IBS components, namely the Pre-Stressed Half
Slabs, Interlocking Engineering Blocks and Bricks are better in terms of quality,
using only the highest quality ingredients such as concrete. We are competitive
in terms of pricing and we can match the conventional method of construction
price easily. We are also proven to be 30% to 50% faster thus reducing your
project time significantly.
The term IBS is defined as INNOVATIVE PROCESS of building construction
using the concept of MASS - PRODUCTION of industrialized systems,
produced at the factory or onsite within controlled environment, it includes the
LOGISTIC and INSTALLATION aspect of it, done in proper coordination with
SYSTEMATIC PLANNING and INTEGRATION.
Constructability is generally reducing the problems of construction by
incorporating the construction knowledge into the design of a construction
project. The Malaysian construction industry is attempting to promote and use
Industrialized Building systems (IBS) for better construction practice with more
effectiveness and efficiency, but in terms of constructability and research into
the application of constructability concepts for IBS little work has been done. In
fact the Malaysian construction industry is still not applying the concepts of
constructability in totality and there is lack of constructability research in
Malaysia. In this research the application status of constructability concepts
which have been previously defined for Malaysia are examined and assessed
within the Malaysian IBS industry.
