PROPERTY developers are urged to optimise the usage of industrialised building system (IBS) as it could further reduce development cost-efficiently.
Works Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof (picture) said via IBS, the materials used are lighter compared to conventional methods, which would result in lighter load and lesser costs for building foundation.
“IBS adoption takes less time to complete the development. It does not only save time but costs for manpower and equipment leases as well,” he said at a press conference yesterday.
He added that the amount of cost-savings depends on the type of project.
