INTRODUCTION.
Industrialise Building System or IBS in short,is a system in which
building components are made in factories, on-site or off site,
transported and then assembled into a structure with a minimum
work.Generally,IBS is implemented to achieve higher productivity
or quality in terms of building construction and reduce
construction defects.
Use of IBS provides many advantages. But there are still obstacles
that hinder these efforts to develop to a higher level .All the
factors that hinder the wider use of IBS should be investigated
and resolved to ensure the a better future of construction sector.
DEFINITION
Esa and Nurudin (1998) asserted that IBS is a continuum beginning from
utilizing craftsmen 62 for every aspect of construction to a system that make
use of manufacturing production in order to minimize resource wastage and
enhance value for end users.

This section focuses on the classification of IBS published in Malaysia as well
as other parts of the world.
With the advancement of technology and innovation, besides the five main
types, various pre-fabricated materials have entered the market. It includes
gypsum, wood wool, polymer, fiber glass, glass and aluminium based IBS
components.

Development Of Existing Building Uses IBS
1. Custom, Immigration & Quarantine Complex, Johor Bahru
This building uses IBS through the use of precast concrete beams, column and
hollow core slabs.
As is well known, the use of precast concrete beams is better because it is ten
times more powerful than the conventional way using blocks.
In addition, it also prevents water and moisture build inflation.
Consequently, it also continues to maintain the building in warmer and drier
condition.It’s also can last longer.
Columns helps to bear the heavy load of the building in better way.
Hollow core slabs are promising excellent fire resistance and provides the
efficiency of a prestressed member for load capacity,span range,and deflection control.

Steel roof structure
System
This building uses IBS through the use of steel roof structure.
Steel roof structure is used because it is very strong and stable frame that
is made of steel and is held together with the help of metal connector plates.
Another advantage of steel roof structure is its color and durability; it also
provides good protection for the assets that are using it.
The stability of a roof is a matter of concern because the roof is often the
least accessible part of a building for purposes of repair and renewal, while
its damage or destruction can have serious effects. That’s why steel roof
structure is the best option for our building design to get an extra benefit of
durability.
There are lots of steel roof structure design services providers available in
market and they are providing extraordinary steel roof structure design
services with the help of experienced structural detailers.

This building uses IBS through the use of tubular steel and steel decking for
Area between the interior and exterior floors to have mineral fiber insulating
system.
Steel deck is a cold-formed corrugated steel sheet supported by steel joists.
The steel deck sheets used for roofs and floors provide support for gravity
loads between the joists and/or beams. Once installed, these sheets can also

History of IBS in Malaysia
IBS began in early 1960s when Ministry of Housing and Local Government of
Malaysia visited several European countries and evaluate their housing
development program. (Thanoon et al, 2003). After their successful visit in
the year 1964, the Government had launched pilot project on IBS to speed
up the delivery time and built affordable and quality houses. Nearly, 22.7
acres of land along Jalan Pekeliling was dedicated to the project comprising
seven blocks of 17-storey flats (3,000 units of low-cost flat and 40 shop lot).
This project was undertaken by Gammon/ Larsen Nielsen using the Danish
System of large panels in a pre-fabricated system.

Malaysian Government Circular on IBS
In line with the target of IBS Roadmap 2003-2010, Budget 2005 declared
that all new government building projects are required to have at least 50%
IBS content. In order to attract private clients, the second announcement
was on the levy exemption for housing projects that have minimum IBS
Score of 50%. Since then and boosted by the Construction Industry Master
Plan 2006-2015 and 9th Malaysia Plan 2006-2010, numerous activities have
been executed by the Government.
Two of the latest major initiatives are the release of the Treasury Circular
Letter No. 7 Year 2008 (Surat Pekeliling Perbendaharaan Bil. 7 Tahun 2008)
and the announcement of the Action Plan for IBS Implementation in
Government Projects (Pelan Tindakan Pelaksanaan IBS dalam Projek-Projek
Kerajaan).
It replaces the earlier instruction released on 6th July 2005 by Treasury for
the usage of 50% IBS content in all government projects. Released on 31st
October 2008, the Treasury Circular Letter was issued to all Secretary
Generals, Heads of Federal Department, State Secretaries, Heads of Federal
Statutory Bodies as well as to all local authorities. The essence of the
instruction is the usage of Open Building, MC design and 70% IBS Score for
all projects. Agencies are required to submit periodical reports of IBS project
implementation to ICU which acts as the central monitoring agency.
Exemptions are offered for certain classes of projects and the IBS Centre will
function as the main technical reference centre.
IBS Roadmap 2003-2010
1. the industry will choose IBS which guarantees better quality, productivity
and safety. in the globalisation era, these are critical factors for the
survival of malaysian construction players
2. the enforcement of using Modular Coordination (MC) through Uniform
Building By Laws (UBBL) will encourage standardisation and
subsequently increase the usage of IBS components. It also encourages
participation from manufacturers and assemblers to enter the market,
thus reducing the price of IBS components. This will create and sustain
new sub-sectors in the manufacturing industry. In essence, MC will
facilitate open industrialisation.
3. a screening and selection programme based on IBS standard
components will ensure that low quality products are not marketed in the
country. This aspect is important to avoid failures in IBS projects; and
4. by reducing wet-trades through IBS, the dependency on foreign workers
will also diminish.
IBS Consultant Listing Programme
IBS Consultant Listing Programme is a scheme to list all IBS consultants
mainly architect, civil and structural engineers, quantity surveyor,
mechanical and electrical engineers which have involved in IBS projects and
undergone certain IBS courses required. The objective of the listing is to
facilitate the government or private project implementor in commencing IBS
projects. The content of modules and criteria for each listing have been
formulated with cooperation with various professional bodies representatives
and government bodies; Ministry of Work, Architect Board of Malaysia,
Quantity Surveyor Board of Malaysia, Engineers Board of Malaysia,
Pertubuhan Arkitek Malaysia (PAM), Institute of Surveyor Malaysia (ISM),
Institute of Engineers Malaysia (IEM), and The Association of Consulting
Engineers Malaysia (ACEM).

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE TO ENCOURAGE USE OF IBS
1. IBS Development will be led by the GLCs and this will ensure the
participation of Bumiputera entrepreneurs to be given priority in all aspects
of development -
To ensure that the Bumiputera contractors to explore this approach,
including its research and design, preparation of standards, production and
installation.
