Determining waste generation factors in Klang Valley refurbishment projects / Chai Kok Liong

Construction wastes become serious environmental problems in many countries. In Malaysian construction industry, the waste generation is so significance to the cost of construction project. Waste can be produced because of variety factors. Within the lifecycle of buildings, waste could be generated...
