Abstract: The transition from conventional to green construction has improved the construction industry in terms of its construction performance. However, even at the most fundamental level, there are still many obstacles towards achieving a comprehensive green construction. Therefore, this research aimed at investigating the drivers towards green construction and examined the hypothesis, H₁ = drivers of green construction has a significant direct effect on construction industry benefits. A total of 346 questionnaires survey were gathered from clients, contractors, consultants and developers. The data were analyzed using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and structural equation modeling, SEM-AMOS. The results from EFA with varimax rotation managed to arrive with seven distinct dimensions. The dimensions were renamed as “organization strategy,” “managerial concerns”, “project strategy,” “procurement strategy”, “client requirements”, “environmental requirements” and “green technology requirements”. Meanwhile, the construction industry benefits were denoted as “project benefits” and “organization benefits”. The value for all items was significant which was >0.006 (p>0.006). Subsequently, the result of hypothesis testing using SEM-AMOS was also supported. Finally, this research concludes that the findings will help construction stakeholders identify the most important drivers towards green construction as well as improve the way in which green construction is implemented in Malaysia.
