Hybrid System Method of Industrialised Building System (IBS): A Review of Studies

Abstract

A new technology in construction has implemented Industrialised Building System (IBS) as an adoption of a new method. Till date, the reception of Industrialised Building System (IBS) has been effectively advancing by Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB). Several of exertions have been taken, for example tremendous of research financing, preparing, and building up standard and other showcasing plan. From previous writing and industry report, the appropriation of IBS was practiced gainful to improve the construction quality and profitability and spare expense and also the duration of completion projects. However, there are still a few issues and problems, such as supply chain and design drawing issues, which has always been one of the biggest problems that should be taken care of in the construction industry. Nowadays, Industrialised Building System (IBS) also has been modified in many ways to make it more practical to use in the construction field. The IBS usage becomes a trend and also a requirement for a government project especially in the northern region of Malaysia such as Kedah and Perlis. Hence, this paper focuses on latest review which is about the new method implements in Industrialised Building System (IBS) technology, which is known as a Hybrid System method. This system is not yet to be found since it is one of the pilot projects from the government. Thus, the survey for this paper will evaluate the outcome whether the new Hybrid System method leads to delay in Industrialised Building System (IBS) or it can help to improve the deferrals of construction.

Pertinent Internal and External Issues in Industrialised Building System (IBS) Construction Business in Malaysia

“…A study conducted by Mohamad & Zin (2019) found that knowledge has a significant positive impact on a business entity. Authority like CIDB has played its role (Azmin & Kassim, 2020) in providing relevant IBS expertise; one of it is via IBS Centre. Although various efforts by the governments and authorities were initiated to penetrate IBS knowledge into the construction industry, Mohamed et al (2018) found that the IBS players are still lacking of IBS knowledge.…”

Hybrid System Methods in Industrialised Building Systems (IBS): A Structural Compatibility Study

“…In Malaysia this technologically enhanced method is known as the Indutrialised Building System (IBS) [19]. Generally, IBS hybrid means a combination of two different elements as stated in Azmin and Umar [12]. The elements can be any types of things that can be mix or combine in order to form one rigid component.…”

“…A hybrid is also anything that is a mixture of two or more things in Cambridge Dictionaries [11], something that is a combination of two different things, so it has qualities relating to both of them. According to Azmin and Umar [12] hybrid is a combination of the same component from IBS and conventional in-situ method. For example, beam structure has been combined between IBS precast and cast in-situ.…”

Advantages of Using Hybrid System Method in Industrialised Building System (IBS)

“…In this way, in this examination there will be another technique that start executes from 2017 by JKR as a pilot ventures called Hybrid System to be highlighted. What's more, to be made sense of whether this strategy can causes delay nor get it be known as an effective technique [9].…”
