Some restrictions are faced due to innovation where the parties cannot adapt themselves due to the fast innovations happened in the industry. This purpose of this study is to examine the construction professionals’ view on issues of innovation and research and development in Malaysia construction industry. The objectives of this study are to determine the current state of innovation and research and development in construction, to identify the impact of innovation and research and development in construction and also to identify the respondent wishes and ideas on issues that require innovative feedback from the construction industry. Forty eight (48) set of questionnaire had been collected among the construction professionals in Klang Valley and Selangor area. The questionnaire had been analysed using SPSS software for the reliability test result, percentage frequency distribution and Relative Importance Index (RII). Data then tabulated in table and illustrated in the form of charts. The result of the study shown that the amount of money spends for the research and development in construction is only about up to RM15,000. Innovation and research and development give more impact in increase of productivity. The professionals wish for more sustainable energy, material and method from the innovation through research and development. 2015-01 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/53617/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/53617/25/SyazwaniAbdulRamanMFKA2015.pdf application/pdf en public http://dms.library.utm.my:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:85554 masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Civil Engineering Faculty of Civil Engineering
