Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2023, Vol 8, Issue 10

Abstract

The implementation of a construction project activity is a lengthy process that is fraught with numerous issues and challenges. The presence of a lot of material waste is one of them. Waste material in the form of concrete rebar was also discovered at the “Apartment X” project in Bekasi, West Java. This research was carried out through interviews, questionnaire distribution, and observation. The findings of the research revealed that the largest percentage of concrete rebar waste in several columns work is D19 rebar waste with a percentage of 18.35%; then the largest percentage in partial wall of STP work is D16 rebar waste with a percentage of 1.29%. Carelessness and worker mistakes, followed by lack of workforce skills, are the factors that influence the occurrence of concrete rebar waste at the “Apartment X” project in Bekasi, West Java, the contractor should have a good quality control system and supervise the workers involved in concrete rebar properly in order to minimize errors that may result in the occurrence of excessive waste. The contractor should also ensure that all parties involved with concrete rebar, from the engineering side to the field implementer, have the capacity to carry out the work that will be assigned.
