MRCB BUILDING SYSTEM MRCB BUILDING SYSTEM

INNOVATION MRCB has innovated the MRCB Building System (MBS), which HOW DOES MBS WORK?
combines a Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction
@WORK (PPVC) system with our patented and unique Candle-Loc
The Candle–Loc system is MRCB’s proprietary joint
connection system, which consists of a stainless-steel
Connection System, allowing up to 90% of a project utilising ISSUES IN THE MALAYSIAN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY ADVANTAGES OF MRCB BUILDING SYSTEM pin and a cast iron lateral tie plate used in between

and installed into position at site. both vertically and horizontally.
