Adopting industrialisation in the construction environment: meeting the requirements of sustainability / Muhamad Faiz Musa …[et al.]
No full textThe construction industry should move from conventional construction method and adopt the industrialisation concept, to increase productivity and deliver quality construction end products. Industrialisation is the combination of a large market to divide into fractions the investment in strategies and innovation, in return, of simplifying the production and, therefore, reducing the costs. The introduction of Degree of Industrialisation by Roger-Bruno Richard is critical to the construction industry. The five degrees of industrialisation are prefabrication, mechanisation, automation, robotics and reproduction. Richard’s Degree of Industrialisation is in line with the Malaysian government’s vision to be a developed nation by 2020, to push forward the use of innovative technologies in most industries including the construction industry. The adoption of industrialisation and innovations in the Malaysian construction industry has the potential to solve the current problems in the construction industry. The problems are the inferior quality of products and processes, a poor site working conditions, low construction productivity, high construction cost, relying on foreign workers and lack of skill labours. The adoption of industrialisation and innovations promote sustainability in the construction environment. The objectives of the study are to investigate whether the adoption of industrialisation in the construction environment promotes sustainability and to identify the current level of industrialisation of the Malaysian construction industry. The methodologies of the study are semi-structure interview and observation. The Malaysian construction industry is ready to embrace industrialisation in construction environment in limited areas and industrialisation promotes sustainability in the construction environment

Inheritance Sharing Expert System
No full textOne of the computer-based information systems is a website, usually this web information system is in offline or online form. Dissemination or delivery of information carried out on online information systems can be accessed by anyone and anywhere with the provision that they must have an internet connection. The purpose of this study is to provide a solution through the study of several theories and observations in the design of a web-based inheritance distribution expert system. The author uses the forward chaining method in designing an expert system. The application development methodology that I use is the ESDLC (Expert System Develop Life Cycle) method. The expected result of this research is the creation of an application design that can simplify the process of calculating inheritance in accordance with Islamic perspective because inheritance is often crucial which sometimes triggers disputes and causes rifts in family relationships and crime. Therefore we need an expert system that can assist in performing calculations
The Industrialised Building System Modular System (IBSMS) Framework
No full textThe enhancement of quality and to promote sustainability in the construction or built environment can be achieved through the adoption of offsite manufacturing (OSM). The adoption OSM through modular construction is already being adopted all over the world but to be considered as new technology and innovation in Malaysia. This paper will discuss the development of a framework for modular construction that embraced the Malaysian IBS approach. The framework is developed from the existing framework, literature review and the findings of the case studies. The established framework hopes to increase the understanding and awareness of modular construction in Malaysia.Keywords: Industrialised Building System (IBS); modular construction; Industrialised Building System Modular System (IBSMS); offsite manufacturing (OSM)ISSN: 2398-4287© 2017.

KONSEP PENDIDIKAN KH. NOER ISKANDAR SQ DALAM MENGEMBANGKAN PONDOK PESANTREN
No full textIslamic boarding schools as one of the faith-based education, also function as Islamic religious broadcasters. Islamic boarding schools have a high level of integrity with sekitamya and become a moral show for the general public. The science studied is inseparable from religious teachings, meaning that all events that occur are considered to have a relationship with religious teachings. The educational institution built by kiayai Noer Iskandar SQ is the Asshiddiqiyah Islamic Boarding School which is an Islamic educational institution and a religious social institution. In its capacity as an Educational, Religious, and Community institution, Asshiddiqiyah Islamic Boarding School always exists in developing its educational concept and remains committed as a stronghold of the Islamic shiar struggle. The method that the author used in this study is the qualitative method. The reason researchers use this is because in this paper, the author wants to provide, explain, describe the concept of pesantren education thought developed by KH. Noer Iskandar SQ who critically, or describes a phenomenon, an event, or an event of social interaction in pesantren. Therefore, this type of qualitative research is descriptive, by collecting field data and existing literature. The difference between one type and another lies in the purpose and strategy of discovery.
Pondok pesantren sebagai salah satu pendidikan berbasis agama, juga berfungsi sebagai lembaga penyiaran agama Islam. Pondok pesantren memiliki tingkat integritas yang tinggi dengan sekitamya dan menjadi rnjukan moral bagi masyarakat umum. Ilmu yang dipelajari tak pemah terpisahkan dari ajaran agama, artinya semua peristiwa yang terjadi dipandang memiliki hubungan dengan ajaran agama.. Lembaga Pendidikan yang dibangun oleh kiayai Noer Iskandar SQ adalah Pondok Pesantren Asshiddiqiyah yang merupakan sebuah lembaga pendidikan Islam dan lembaga sosial keagamaan. Dalam kapasitasnya sebagai lembaga Pendidikan, Keagamaan, dan Kemasyarakatan, Pondok Pesantren Asshiddiqiyah senantiasa eksis dalam mengembangkan konsep Pendidikannya dan tetap pada komitmennya sebagai benteng perjuangan syiar Islam. Metode yang penulis gunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualiltatif. Alasan peneliti menggunakan ini adalah karena dalam tulisan ini, penulis ingin memberikan, menerangkan, mendeskripsikan konsep pemikiran pendidikan pesantren yang dikembangkan oleh KH. Noer Iskandar SQ yang secara kritis, atau menggambarkan suatu fenomena, suatu kejadian, atau suatu peristiwa interaksi sosial yang ada di pesantren. Oleh karena itu, jenis penelitian kualitatif bersifat deskriptif, dengan mengumpulkan data lapangan dan ada kepustakaan. Perbedaan antara tipe yang satu dengan yang lain terletak pada tujuan dan strategi penemuannya.
