Construction industry in Malaysia should aim to implement bubble deck slab technology as part
in the construction because it gives a lot of positive impact in terms of cost and usage. Besides
that implement bubble deck slap also will make our safety on construction site become safer as
we know a lot of accident happens on site. One of the accident on the construction site happens
on 16 may 2016 at Petaling Jaya where the fourth floor of the building had collapsed early on
Sunday morning, resulting in six foreign workers trapped under the rubble. This is found the
benefit of implement the bubble deck at this project, it will make the slab become stronger as we
know it will increase the strength of the slab and reduce the dead load. Other than that, on 18
March 2016 at Georgetown, Penang, three Bangladeshi workers were injured when the second
floor of the six-storey building collapsed during construction. After investigation, they suspected
the structure of slab of the building is weaker, that is why the floor were crashed. The issues is
not happens in the Malaysia, it also happens in the overseas such as on 2 February 2017 at New
Delhi, India the workers were placing a concrete slab on the top floor of the seven-storey
residential building in Uttar Pradesh states Kanpur district when it came crashing down
yesterday. From the statistic by minister of human resources in October 2016, there has 3,140
cases accident in industry and it is increased from last year because last year there has only 2,942
cases in January 2015. This is the main reason why bubble deck is important to implement more
frequently in our construction project. There has a lot of journal written on this benefit of bubble
deck issues such as Flexural capacities of reinforced concrete two-way bubble deck slabs of
plastic spherical voids by Amer M. Ibrahim, Nazar K. Ali, Wissam D. Salman.
Investigate and identify the development of implement the use of bubble deck slab in the
construction industry for housing in Penang.
4.0 RESEARCH OBJECTIVE
1. To identify level of implementation bubble deck slab in the construction industry for
housing in Penang.
2. To identify the challenges happen if implementing bubble deck slab as part of material in
the project.
Once the nature of the research information required have identified and followed by the
identification of the members of the population which can supply this information, it must be
decided who it will approach and how it will approach them. Questionnaire and interviews may
be used to collect data by communicating with respondents, there are various methods of doing
this depending on the circumstances. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages.
