| Summary: | Loading and unloading process for precast concrete components can influence the efficiency of the construction process. The report focuses on transportation of precast concrete mainly in loading and unloading process in order to document the different transportation system, to come out with the design of a semitruck trailer with side loaders and steel cage and to identify the market potential of the proposed innovation idea. The data and information regarding the report was obtain through interview with the collaboration with from one of the IBS manufacturers in Perak, through documents analysis and the feedback from the respondents involve in manufacturer, suppliers and contractor/installer of IBS component. From the review, it is found that the issues involve during loading and unloading process can influence the construction efficiency such as the longer duration taken for loading and unloading process cause delay in receiving the material and the cost for loading and unloading process, safety hazards occur even with a reported accident during the loading and unloading process of precast concrete panel and the release of the harmful gases during the process occur. Besides that, it is decided to proposed a semitruck trailer attachment to minimize the loading and unloading process by completing the process in one go with the steel cage design to tackle the issued found from the review. Upon finishing the propose innovation, majority of the respondents gave a positive feedback towards the proposed innovation idea and 30% of the respondents would buy the product if the product had penetrated the market. It was hope that the proposed innovation idea can be beneficial in construction industry. |
