Introduction of IBS System Types of IBS System Pros and Cons of Proposed IBS System Case Study

The IBS System INTRODUCTION Industrialized Building System (IBS) is a construction technique whereby building components are manufactured in factories then transported and assembled into a structure with limited on site work. The beneﬁts of IBS are clear and eminent as it allows for building to be constructed in a shorter time span and with greatly reduced activities at the construction site, which in turn provides tremendous cost savings to the builders. There are six main IBS groups identiﬁed as being popularly used in Malaysia, namely (i) Pre-cast concrete framing, panel and box systems, (ii) Steel formwork system, (iii) Steel framing system, (iv) Timber framing system, (v) Blockwork system, and (vi) Innovative system.

PRECAST CONCRETE SYSTEM

STEEL FRAMING SYSTEM

This IBS consists of precast concrete columns, beams, slabs, walls, “3D” components (e.g. balconies, staircases, toilets, lift chambers, refuse chambers), lightweight precast concrete and permanent concrete formworks.

This IBS is commonly used with precast concrete slabs, steel columns/beams and steel framing systems, and is used extensively in the fast-track construction of skyscrapers. Apart from that, it is extensively used for light steel trusses consisting of cost-effective proﬁled, cold-formed channels and steel portal frame systems as alternatives to the heavier traditional hot-rolled sections.

BLOCK WORK SYSTEM

STEEL FORMWORK SYSTEM

It includes of interlocking concrete masonry units (CMU) and lightweight concrete blocks. The block system is mainly used for non-structural wall as an alternative to conventional brick and plaster.

PREFABRICATED FRAMING SYSTEM

TIMBER

It consists of timber building frames and timber roof trusses. Although the latter is more common, timber building frame systems also offer interesting designs from simple dwelling units to buildings such as chalets for resorts.

This IBS is made up of tunnel forms, beams and columns moulding forms, and permanent steel formworks. This system is the least prefabricated among the IBS, as it normally involves site casting. Therefore, it is subject to structural quality control, high-quality ﬁnishes and fast construction with less site labour and material requirement.

Pros & Cons

OF THE STEEL FRAMING IBS SYSTEM PROS 1) Strength & Durability Structural steel components are lighter and stronger than weight-bearing wood or concrete products. This makes steel frame construction far stronger and more durable than traditional wood framed alternatives. 2) Easy Fabrication In Different Sizes Steel studs are available in a variety of sizes and can be fabricated order. This means they can be customised to bear specific loads in buildings of all different types and sizes. 3) Fire Resistance Steel frame constructions are highly resistant to fire, reducing the fire risk to a building and retarding the spread of a fire should one occur. Special flame retardant coatings act to increase this property of structural steel. 4) Pest & Insect Resistant Structural steel components are immune to the degrading effects of burrowing insects and mammals – which can cause a problem for wooden framework unless adequately treated. 5) Moisture & Weather Resistance Structural steel can have good moisture resistant properties, depending on its carbon content. Hot zinc coating and extra powder treatments for enhanced rust resistance will make a structural steel component even more immune to the effects of water – an important consideration for components exposed to the weather.

CONS Steel frame constructions do have a couple of disadvantages, the most regularly cited being: 1) Thermal Conductivity Steel is not known for its warmth, due to its high efficiency in conducting heat. The insulation value of walls can be reduced by as much as half when heat is transferred away through steel studs, which is not good news for energy retention in a building. Where steel frame construction is used, insulation measures need to be put in place to counteract the thermal conductivity of steel. 2) Reduced Flexibility On Site One of the benefits of using wooden structural components is the ability to adjust them on site. A component can be cut down to size, nails hammered in to strengthen the join and so on. This obviously can’t happen with steel. The measurements of steel need to be precisely calculated in advance, because a steel fabrication is delivered to site in its final form, ready to be slotted into the building. This is of course one of the big advantages of steel, but if the fabrication has resulted in an inaccurate component for whatever reason, the project may be held up while the framework is sent back to the workshop for adjustment. You can avoid this issue by working with a fabrication company such as GLW, where we take a consultative approach to accuracy and measurements from the very beginning, to avoid any unpleasant surprises on site. 3) Supporting Structures Steel frame constructions rarely work on their own. They usually require drywall, sheathing, insulation and supplementary wooden components to bring a building together. In the opinion of some construction businesses, this longer construction time is an argument against steel frame constructions, although usually the time savings outweigh any adjustments that need to be made on site.

Foundation & Column Connection Detail

CONSTRUCTION

System: Cast In Situ Pad Footing The strength of a building lies in its foundation. The anchor bolt transfer tension, compression and shear force to reinforced the concrete footing. The main purpose of the foundation is to hold the structure above it and keep it upright. The three most important factors are to bear the load of the building, anchor it against natural forces, such as earthquakes, and to isolate it from ground moisture. On the contrary, a poorly constructed foundation can be dangerous to the occupants and the neighbourhood.

Procedure

1. -

Preparing cast bed Base mould cleaning preparation, keep the mould clean and from debris and old mortar.

5. Curing Protect the hollow core panels with tarpaulin canvas in desired environment,to prevent rapid moisture loss and shrinkage crack.

Application of Form Release Agent Form release agent used should have anti-rust properties and be relatively dry after application so that the strands will not be contaminated. It should be applied evenly over the mould surface. 6. Detensioning of Strands Conducting cube test in order to verify the strength of concrete element. To check whether the concrete attained to the designed transfer strength.

3. Prestressing Strand Hauling and Tensioning When the form release agent has dried to a certain degree, it will not contaminate the strands. Then double check the strand size, spacing and pattern. Carry out visual inspection of the surface finish to ensure there is no serious defect like honeycomb, dimensional changes, cracks and etc.

7. Final Inspection / Transfer to Storage Yards Carry out another inspection before transfer to storage yard.

PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

Installation on Site Procedure

1. -

Inspection of Production Items on Construction Site All products of the company are marked by a special label meeting standard requirements

Unloading, Hoisting Unloading and hoisting of HCS slabs shall be conducted using a special lifting devices - a hoisting traverse, which consists of a lifting beam with two hoisting grippers. The position of the hoisting grippers on the lifting beam shall be adapted to the length of the slab.

3. Interim Storage Interim storage on the construction site usually is not required, as production items are installed directly from a lorry. If interim storage is conducted, for this purpose a horizontally leveled site should be prepared.

5. Adjustment, Curvature Equalization Different curvatures of adjacent slabs may occur because of many influences as follows: improper storage of slabs and transportation, different length adjacent slabs. If these mismatches in the lower side of the floor exceed the allowable size - 8mm, the curvature of slabs should be necessary equalized.

6. Positioning, Installation of Ties The quantity of slab ties and their installation methods are indicated in each project. As this influence is determined by great many of different factors, in the Project, tie installation nodes, their locations on the floor and concreting peculiarities shall be indicated. More frequently, the ties are installed at the ends of slabs by the supporting members. If a floor functions as a diaphragm, the ties (anchors) shall be also installed with the longitudinal walls. For this purpose, at the sides of a floor slab, the grooves are designed.

Concreting of Junctions and Joints -

4. Installation HCS are installed on a leveling neoprene strip, fastened to the bearing structure. Prior to installation the slabs on wall slabs, the smoothness of the bearing surface should be checked. If the bearing surface is not smooth, the roughness should be removed or leveled.

The installation joints that are between the slabs and also the ends of slabs should be filled with fine aggregate concrete, the strength class of which when compressing shall be C20 (Mpa), still C25, C30 (Mpa) are recommended. The maximum diameter of fillers being used shall be 8mm. The concrete shall be compacted using an internal vibrator (head diameter 20 mm).

Column & Beam PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

System: Steel Column & Beam Column and beam steel frame structures have a skeleton of steel connected by bolts or welds that act as the support for the rest of the building. A column and beam frame can be braced or continuous. A braced frame has a web of smaller members acting to stabilize and provide rigidity to the frame, which is generally a simple pin connection. Bracing is added horizontally or vertically to the main frame, often in shaped patterns to facilitate transferring load stresses. Various prefabricated beam sections are available to be used in the construction multi storey steel frame structure. Beams commonly transfer loads from floors and roof to the columns.There are various sizes of steel column section to choose and these steel columns are commonly produced in advance. The most significant point in column installation is the connection between foundation and column and splices between columns.The reason for using steel column and beam in our apartment design, production of structural steel beams means minimum waste during construction, which is advantageous for cost saving. Moreover, steel can be fire proofed by using specialty coatings which inhibit steel deterioration in case of fire. (Seow, 2018)

3. Punching and drilling These can drill many holes in flanges and webs of rolled steel sections simultaneously. It is also possible to punch holes, and this is particularly useful where square holes are specified such as anchor plates for foundation bolts.

PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

Fabrication of Column Construction Procedure

1. Surface Cleaning Structural sections from the rolling mills may require surface cleaning to remove mill scale prior to fabrication and painting.

4. Straightening, bending and rolling Rolled steel may get distorted after rolling due to cooling process. Further during transportation and handling operations, materials may bend or may even undergo distortion. This may also occur during punching operation. Therefore before attempting further fabrication the material should be straightened. 5. Fitting and Reaming Before final assembly, the component parts of a member are fitted-up temporarily with rivets, bolts or small amount of welds. The fitting-up operation includes attachment of previously omitted splice plates and other fittings and the correction of minor defects found by the inspector.

i) Blast cleaning

ii) Flame cleaning

2. Cutting and Machining - Following surface preparation, cutting to length is always the first process to be carried out, and this is done by any of the following methods.

6. Fastening (Bolting, Riveting and Welding) The strength of the entire structure depends upon the proper use of fastening methods. Welding is the most common method of shop fabrication of steel structures. 7. Finishing Structural members whose ends must transmit loads by bearing against one another are usually finished to a smooth even surface. Finishing is performed by sawing, milling or other suitable means. 8. Quality Control 9. Surface treatment Structural steelwork is protected against corrosion by applying metal or paint coating in the shop or at site.

PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

Fabrication of Wall Procedure

4. Trimming When necessary, the fresh product is topped at a specified point, where the manually adjusted circular saw cuts off the wanted trimming piece. Trimming length is max 20cm. The trimmedâ&#x20AC;?off concrete is then recycled back to the extruder.

5. Stacking Cut, fresh products are stacked into precuring stacks. Depending on the product thickness and weight, each stack contains 4 to 10 products and base molds. Stacks are supported by steel pallets, which are automatically fed underneath each stack. Then the stacks are moved to the ocuring area either by an automated conveyor system, by a forklift or by a crane.

Concrete Supply The concrete required is batched and mixed at an automatic batching and mixing station. The relatively dry aggregates are automatically batched into the mixer and added with water. Moisture content of the mixed concrete must be automatically controlled and adjusted. After mixing, the concrete batch is fed to the conveying system, which brings fresh concrete to the lineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hopper.

2. -

Extruding The Acotec-wall elements are formed in a continuously operating extruder. The concrete is compacted onto thin base molds which then automatically fed to the extruder as a continuous ribbon. The extruder compacts the concrete with extrusion screws against the packing bar and sidewalls. The top surface of the product is vibrated by a vibrating plate.

3. Cutting After extruding, the products are cut according to the base mold length. A circular saw cuts the fresh concrete on each base mold seam. Them the cut product together with the supporting plate is pulled to the stacker.

6. Procuring The stacks must stay in the procuring storage area, which is, where natural curing (temperature should be above +10Â° C) occurs for 15 to 24 hours. In a dry climate, the stacks should be covered with tarpaulins. The product stacks are moved in and out of the storage area with a forklift, a crane or automatic conveyor lines.

7. Restacking After procuring has taken place, the products are strong enough to withstand automatic handling which then separated from the base molds, which are put back into circulation after passing through a cleaning and oiling unit. The products are restacked to form delivery stacks and is pushed against a wooden delivery pallet and turned on its side.

8. Packing Delivery stacks are strapped and preferable wrapped before transportation to delivery storage. Stacks must stay in delivery storage for at least 14 days before being transported to a construction site.

Walls

PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

According to manufacturer instructions, gluing agents should be mixed carefully using the recommended safety equipment.

Installation On Site Procedure

A maximum of two stacks can be placed on top of each other during storage and transportation. The stockyard should be level and panels should be protected from the rain. The panels must be stored on their sides at all times.

The line that the wall will follow is marked to the floor and ceiling before starting the installation. All steps or raised platforms must conform to local regulations.

A lifting fork or belt should be placed under the wooden pallet to lift panel stacks. The capacity is to be checked against load being allet to lift panel stacks.

Guiding boards are placed on the floor and ceiling and wedged into place using timber stringers. The guiding support will automatically align the wall when lifting the panels.

Acotec Panel stacks can easily be moved at the construction site by a forklift or a trolley. Due to the weight of the load to be transported, powered equipment may be required in addition to adequate manpower, depending on load size.

The joint is filled with polyurethane foam (alternatively with mineral wool or foamed plastic), and paper tape glued to the corners before skimming.

Individual Acotec Panel can easily be moved by the turning barrow trolley. The amount of manpower required depends on the panel size.

The gluing agent is applied to the side of the already installed Acotec Panel.

According to manufacturer instructions, gluing agents should be mixed carefully using the recommended safety equipment.

Acotec Panel is positioned at the correct level by using plastic shims on the floor and kept in place by using wooden wedges at top of the Acotec Panel.

The gap between the panel and the ceiling is filled with polyurethane foam using a stepladder of up to 3 steps or a platform.

The excess glue is removed from joints immediately after installation. Wedges are removed after panel adhesive is cured.

The gluing agent is applied to the side of the already installed Acotec Panel.

Walls

PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM Before plastering, paper tape should be glued over the corner joints.

Installation On Site Procedure

Sawing and drilling of an Acotec Panel are easy. Use the tool manufacturer's safety equipment and the correct P.P.E.

Also, before plastering, paper tape should be glued to the joints above the door.

The panels next to the door, 'shoulders' are sawed for the door top piece. The door top piece is glued using polyurethane foam or gluing agents.

The hollow cores allow cables to be pulled through, electrical boxes can be drilled to any desired point.

Flexible joints between Acotec Panel should be used every 4,8 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 6m. Polyurethane foam or mineral wool can be used as elastic joint material.

All corners should be strengthened with nail plugs. (3 plugs per corner).

Acotec Panel Wall needs a very thin plaster skim of (1 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 3mm) before surface finishing. This can be applied using a long trowel. Skim coating can be applied after 2 weeks in normal lifting fork or belt should be placed under the wooden dry conditions.

Roof Truss

Installation On Site

PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

System: Prefabricated Gable Steel Roof Truss Prefabricated steel trusses offer a high strength, lightweight roof system that can be installed quickly and recyclable, lt allow greater spans in the structure. Although the cost is higher compare to wood trusses, it has higher durability and flexibility which only require little maintenance.

1. Prefabricated Roof trusses are secured onto the building through anchor bolts and welded metal plates connection.

Advantages Better Quality Higher quality materials and strength; roof trusses are fabricated inside a shop, where the materials are not exposed to inclement weather or moisture conditions. Fast Trusses can typically be installed in a single day, speeding the home construction process and getting the structure closed up sooner, which helps prevent moisture and other weather elements from getting inside.

2. The steel trusses are prefabricated in the steel costing yard.

Long Span Roof trusses can span much longer distances without the need for load bearing interior walls.

Roof Truss PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

Fabrication of Prefabricated Roof Construction Procedure

4. Pressing 1. Design Design in place for the truss before the building process can start. Calculation of size and dimensions, Then create a truss that meets the requirements of the client and of local building codes.

The last step in manufacturing a roof truss is pressing. Here, with all of the metal cut and the truss plates put into their appropriate place, the whole assembly goes through a hydraulic press and receives a final inspection. Upon completion of the inspection, the truss is done and ready to be shipped out to the building site.

5. Assembly 2. Creating a Template To conduct a efficient manufacturing process, the manufacturer creates a template to outline exactly which pieces need to be used in which locations, how they will all fit together and where they will need to place plates.

3. Cutting Cut the C-channel pieces out that are going to be used to build the trusses. All pieces should be cut accurately in order to meet the building specifications when complete.

After all of the pieces for the trusses are collected, the cut pieces of metal are inserted into the template created to make manufacturing more efficient. This ensures they match the design that has already been put in place. After this, the truss manufacturer puts the truss plates into place and prepares for the final step.

Bathroom Pod PROPOSED IBS SYSTEM

05 CONCLUSION

IBS SYSTEM

Conclusion IBS SYSTEM

The IBS is an ideal building system that will promote environmental sustainability, resulting in less wastage of materials, compared to conventional construction methods. It is also the construction method of choice in enhancing worker safety and working conditions by reducing accidents and fatalities at work sites. IBS has many advantages that leads to the efficiency of erecting a building. Besides, IBS systems such as steel frame structure and steel framework system are beneficial due to itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lightweight properties and flexibility which allows the fabrication process to be conducted fast and easy. For example, steel framing systems are long-lasting and recyclable. Although there are limitations due to material properties, however several treatment methods can help solve this issue. This assignment has allowed us to have a clearer and deeper understanding towards what an IBS system is. Also, by proposing a certain IBS system proposal on our apartment building, it has cultivated an in depth knowledge on the proposed IBS system, which is the steel framing system and steel framework system. Besides, with the construction of a physical model. We are able to get a grasp on the prefabrication process and the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;on-siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; assembling of the model which resembles the actual site construction itself. This has also allows us further understand on how each components are joined up and connected to one and another. Hence, with the use of the IBS score calculation, a systematic and structured assessment allows us to identify whether our apartment building fulfils the IBS score benchmark. With the usage of standard dimensions and fulfilling the requirements as stated in MS1064. Our building has achieved a total IBS score of 84/100.Thereby it is shown that this building has achieved the following attributes which emphasises on the usage of prefabricated precast components, off-site components, the use of standardised components, repeatability and is designed using a modular-coordination concept.
