Abstract

Industrial building system is a hot topic in current construction industry. The implementation of polymer formwork system is the new system that adopted by many contractor in Malaysia. The impacts of using this polymer formwork system to the performance are not known-well by public. In Malaysia, besides of the polymer formwork system, many type of formwork system in market such as steel formwork, fabric formwork, aluminum formwork and bamboo formwork system. The comparison of polymer and the conventional formwork system which is plywood formwork system carried out in the research. In a case study, is to investigate how the organization accepted the polymer formwork system from the known well of impacts and the total performance. The research utilized PEST analysis by (Taherkhani R. et al, 2012) to study the impacts and factors that influence the performance of construction by using polymer formwork system. A series of researcher administrated questionnaires or interview were conducted to collect respondents’ answer, while data collected were analyzed qualitatively. As a conclusion, Polymer formwork system performed well in Malaysia construction project market, with successful completed more than millions value projects. Inevitably, the organizations need to consider many factors of implement the polymer formwork system and study well the impacts that brings along.
