Popis: Rapid development in construction industry had caused the increasing of construction waste. This situation brings many negative impacts towards the environment, cost, productivity, time, social and economy. The increasing of construction wastes is mainly due to the inefficient waste management practices in the construction projects. Hence, the effective management practices in handling construction waste should be highlighted. This study seeks to identify the waste management practices that are able to engender on-site waste minimization. As much as 54 practices had been found from previous research publications. Mapping technique was used to determine the frequency for each practice. This study have found five (5) significant management practices that need to be emphasized in order to achieve on-site waste minimization. The findings of this paper will help researchers to further investigate the significant management practices in minimizing on-site construction waste.
