description Since 1960’s, Malaysia construction industry had getting utilized Industrialized Building System(IBS) in some of the project. The most two earlier building which using IBS was Pekeliling Flat in Kuala Lumpur and Rifle Range Flat in Penang. Consequently, following the year after 1960’s there are lots of construction development in Malaysia using IBS system in most of the low cost high rise residential building. With the aim to reduce the number of the unskilled foreign labor, Malaysia had encouraged local contractor to used the IBS system. Unfortunately, there are lots of problem in maintenance which affected the building quality and operation when a building was built using the IBS system. Thus, factor which will affect the quality of the IBS precast building should be identify in order to produce a better quality and operation of the IBS building. This particular study will fully focus in low practicing of the civil and construction criteria for precast concrete in IBS building. This two particular main criteria will be seriously analysis and find out the factor which will create the building maintenance issues. This study is importantly to find out the factor which leads to building maintenance in civil and construction for IBS precast building. Eventually from the analysis, hopefully the factor affecting the quality of the IBS precast building will be identify and a good propose of solution which can increase the quality and operation of the IBS building.
