Abstract

Construction is the sector that uses the most resources and energy. The amount of waste donated by the construction industry is expected to be 30% of the cost of materials. Furthermore, the construction industry is starting to focus on sustainable development, where technology is one of the enablers to realise it. Technology development is influenced by the level of technology adoption carried out by contractors who have a significant role in the production process. Additive Layer Manufacturing or 3D printing is one of the newest technologies that has developed as a pioneer in pushing the construction industry towards automation. It aims to increase construction productivity. Recently, 3D Printing material construction technology has begun to be applied in Indonesia in a residential project. This step has become a steppingstone for developing construction technology in Indonesia. The adoption of construction technology in a company is caused by many factors, both inhibiting and supporting. The factors influencing the adoption can be used to formulate strategies for subsequent technology development. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Technology-Organization-Environment-Cost (TOEC) Framework are used in identifying these factors.
