Development of framework for construction waste secondary market in Malaysia / Nur Amierah Harun
description The construction industry bears a proportionally significant weight of Malaysia’s ever-increasing growth and development, resulting in ever more projects. While these initiatives boost the economy, they also generate more waste in proportion to their scale and influence. In Malaysia, construction operations generate a lot of waste, both in terms of natural materials and man-made construction materials. Furthermore, illegal dumping and inefficient waste management have exacerbated the situation. In contrast, higher efficiency methods that produce less waste and lead to better recycling allow projects to enhance revenues while decreasing expenditures. Hence, this research aims to develop a framework for construction waste secondary market in Malaysia. This is to be achieved by identifying the construction waste management profile; determining the barriers to construction waste secondary market implementation; investigating factors affecting the secondary market; and developing a framework for the construction waste secondary market in Malaysia.
