| Summary: | Construction industry is more or less the same as what other industry is. There are a lot of other things that involved in the construction industry other than the product itself such as marketing area and more and that are what involved after the construction. Whilst the construction of buildings, the thing such as waste management is needed to be taken seriously too. This is because waste management also contribute to the sustainability of the project and also, give a quite big impact to the environment. Good waste management on construction site will lead to a good product too besides it is playing the role in cost managing. There are a lot of methods for a good waste management in the construction site but however, some contractors did not take it seriously as they are mostly thought about the faster and easier work to be done. The implication of bad waste management on site will contribute not only to the project but will also affect the environment. However, major causes of construction waste problems are due to improper waste management and there are lack of waste regulations and improper disposal facilities that lead to difficulties in implementing the proper waste in construction. To achieve the objectives of the study, an online survey has been distributed to developers, consultants, and contractors by using Social Medias platforms. The online survey was in Google Form and has been answered by 82 participants. The result of the study shows the objectives has been successfully achieved. |
