As a vision which claim to make transform Malaysia to become a world class country by the year 2020, developing pace has been increase to make sure the vision became true. Meanwhile, as a globalization challenges gradually become greater and greater every day, more and more technology that has been developed. As a student of civil engineering, there is no doubt we have to deal with infrastructure division. Theoretical knowledge and basic concept is no longer enough to prepare us for future challenges ahead. Besides this entire theoretical concept we learn does not consider environment factor. There are thousands of potential problems causes by environment which we could ever imagine of. How can we be sure if we are ready for all these an unexpected challenges? So, that why university has prepared this practical training to us. Besides, through this industrial training, we can have the better insight into the reality of this field and gain some picture about the potential challenges which we might face in the future. Hoping we may have better prepare in facing future challenges, this training is being carried out. Through this we have chances to meet some experience engineers. We can learn way of solving problems, people to deal with, necessary precautions and even get some precious advices from them. The training will certainly benefit us as civil engineering students.

PROJECT AND ACTIVITIES INVOLVED IN VALSERV SDN BHD 1. Introduction to Project and Organization of Construction Drawing For the beginning, I‟d been at the main office and was introduced to the background of the company, the organization and the projects they had involved with. I was exposed to the construction drawing; who are responsible to do the drawing, contains of the drawing, detailing of the drawing, and how to analyze the drawing. Besides that, the staff of the office was described about the organization of civil, architectural, and mechanical and electrical drawings. I had learned how to differentiate the type of drawings in a project and their purposes. I was assigned to identify the parts of a building involving the bungalow, central facilities, hall, mosque, and exc. I also was assigned to check the list of drawings and set them in the order as listed. The other things I did is editing the bill of quantities included the checking for process and errors in bill of quantities until the process of printing and photostatting. It is a part of document tender of the project. The last thing I did at the main office was editing the drawing of the drain because some adjustment existing with the project. So, I have to do the plotting of site plan drawings, calculation and final checking of the length of u-drain involving u-drain, udrain and lid, and print out the drawing plan.

3. Taking-off and documentation

I had done the checking for taking-off of beam of hall and mosque in civil drawings. I used the scale ruler to measure the exact length of reinforcement bar in the drawing. Besides that, I have to identify the types of reinforcement bars used; Y10, Y20, Y25, R10, BRC A7 and BRC A8 and then check the measurement of bars to be cut, bent, drop, and overlapping. Supposedly, the reinforcement bar at the top is larger in size from the bottom one. The total reinforcement bar used was calculated after the process of checking. Finally, I have to check either the total is tally or not with the bill of quantities. Rifer Appendix 1

4. Request for Inspection(RFI) and Documentation The student as behalf of contractor will prepare RFI for the related structure to be checked by the consultant for an approval to the next jobs. Then, after the RFI approved the responsible is handed to the consultant that approves the RFI. After the checking is done, the consultant will give a comment regarding to the inspection officially. As a contractor they need to record all the documents for the further reference. 5. Request for Information(RFI) and Documentation

6. Job Responsible a) Inspection of workers and daily work progress - Spray anti-termite - Cut and bent of reinforcement bars - Leveling each floor - Formwork - Rectification G5 and drilling - Scaffolding upper floor beam

Industrial Training Report

Rifer Appendix 2

b) Inspection work progress at Mosque - The progress is at the pile cap stage. One problem occur that is flooding in the excavate area. For the solution they had pump out the water.

Industrial Training Report

c) Inspection of installation formwork and rebar column, slab, staircase, stump and pile cap. I did the inspection for size and dimension of formwork of pile cap. There are three types of pile cap which consist three, two, and one piles. I also did there inspection of reinforcement bar of pile caps. I also join the inspection did by SCG consultant to inspect formwork and rebar of column, beam, slab, staircase, stump, and pile cap before concreting. There were so many problems occurred during the inspection. For example, there was dirt in the formwork due to debris and rubbish, and they did not install the formwork properly on that structure.

d) Inspection of concreting column, slab, staircase, stump and pile cap. Before the concreting process, as a supervisor, they should know the total volume of concrete needed. The supervisor also need to know the discipline of concreting of any structure; like when we do the concreting for slab, they must pour the concrete from one side to another side to make sure that the concrete do not harden before they achieve the same thickness. Normally, we use volume of concrete around 95-100 m3 for one slab. For the rest structure, it‟s depending on the size and quantity of the structures. Sometimes, if the structure is too big and difficult to do the concreting, they just can complete the half of the structure on one day, and proceed the concreting on the next day. Usually, for pile cap and stump, we use the concrete of grad G35, while for the other structures, we use the concrete of grad G30. Example of problems on this stage is like the worker doesn‟t tell their supervisor in charge that the concrete wasn‟t enough, the mixer-lorry broke down, and concrete vibrator also broke down, and exc.

Industrial Training Report

e) Inspection spray and injection anti-termite For any construction, they must take care of the damage cause by termite. There are two ways to prevent this type of problem; for normal structure, they directly spray the soil with anti-termite. They have to spray the soil, stump, and pile cap before backfill soil. Another way is to inject the anti-termite into the soil via a hole made on slab. We do this method if the workers forget to spray the anti-termite before the backfill, and for abandoned project. This anti-termite guarantee is 2 years. Spray Soil Anti-termite

Industrial Training Report

Injection Anti-termite

f) Inspection verticality of column(using „timbang air‟ or plumb bob) This is a traditional method that can find the verticality of column, slab, beam, and exc. This method is cheaper and easier to conduct.

Industrial Training Report

g) Inspection lean concrete (2”-3” depth) In our construction, we use concrete grad G-15 as a lean concrete. Lean concrete used to separate the structure from directly connected to soil. Usually, we put the lean concrete about 2-3 inches thickness. It is also used for ground floor or any structure that is directly connected to the soil.

h) Inspection of installation cable wires or mechanical & electrical works, sanitary and cold water There are some sub-contractors that are responsible to the mechanical and electrical works in our construction. They should have their own short drawing of their works of each building. They should properly install the M&E equipment simultaneously with the civil works. For example, they should do M&E works before we put the BRC and concreting the slab.

Industrial Training Report

i) Inspection of problems on site (rectification reinforcement, honey comb and etc) Since it is an abandoned project, we found that many reinforcement bars was stolen from the site, involving the bars from column, beam, and slab. For the solution, we use Hammer Capsule method to rectify the problems. It is a method from Germany. Usually we use two Hammer Capsules for one hole. But, it is too expensive and difficult to conduct. Therefore, we use another method which is G5 method. It is a Malaysian method and is cheaper from another one. It also can carry high loading up to 40 tonne. The steels are completely set 2 hours after rectification. The depth for the rectification is about 6-8 inches for both methods. Problem that normally we have to face at site is honeycomb. Honeycomb is a situation which is the structure does not properly covered by concrete the concrete is not homogenously poured and caused because the reinforcement bars to expose to the air. As the solution, we should use the cement grout; which is a special material that has special characteristic and strength, requested from the consultant.

j) Inspection of earthwork works This stage is involving the works of cut and fill, compaction, layering, leveling, and site clearing around the site area. The time of completion of the work is depending on the soil characteristic, weather, existing material on site, and machineries used.

k) Inspection compaction of soil n aggregate for road We use aggregates of size 30-50 mm for road layer. Normally, we compact the soil or aggregates four times per layer based on consultant requirement. But, the JKR standard require 12 times of compaction per layer. The self weight of the compactor is one tone. l) Inspection of brick lays and alignment

Industrial Training Report

The bricks must be lay according to the drawing details based on the centre line and grid line. The alignment must be set up and followed by the brick layers. We hire a specialist to do the brick layers to ensure the layers are straight and not waving.

m) Inspection setting direction of KIBLAT This inspection needs the guide and co-operation from Jabatan Agama Islam Pahang (JAIP). They have to be there during the inspection to ensure the direction is accurate. From our surveyor, he just used the theodolite to measure the correct direction of Kiblat. Then, our surveyor was checking the result with JAIP for conformation. After that, if the result is tally, then JAIP will give a certificate by Mufti approval. Only after we get the certificate, we can start to construct the mosque.

Industrial Training Report

n) Conduct concreting of pile cap, stump and slab

As a practical student, I had assigned to conduct the concreting for certain structures like pile cap, stump, and slab. I had learned how to manage the workers, machineries, and concrete during the concreting. They also give me a chance to make an order for concrete from the concrete agent.

o) Update monthly report progress

The report progress must be update at the end of every month. So, I suppose to capture the structure of each buildings, photocopy, analysis, print, arrange report in order, and bind them together. We have two types of report that should be updated every month which is; progress report, and quantity assurance and quality control report. We have to prepare ten copies of each report for the clients and consultant references. Project manager and resident engineer must check and approve the report before it is bring into the meeting.

7. Learn about site progress a) Request for Inspection (RFI)

Industrial Training Report

RFI is used by the contractor to inform the consultant about the inspection progress of the structure. It is always used in any construction by the contractor for the purpose of construction work. b) Terms(LAD,CF,LR,EOT) LAD – Liquidated Ascertained Damage CF – Certificate of Fitness (practical completion) LR – Liquidity Period (period that client can claim for defects construction) EOT – Extension of Time

c) Batching plant operations Batching plant is a machine that is used to mix the concrete due to the grad request by the client. On the batching plant, it has several concrete components such as; water, sand, cement, and aggregates. It can produce up to 100 m3 of concrete per day. For example, ratio for grad 30 concrete is 1:2:3 which is aggregate 82 kg, cement 5 kg, and water 849 liters. Every concrete produced will be tested using slump test and cube test. We pour the concrete until three layers and do the hammering 25 times for each layer. Slump for concrete of grad 30 should be around 25 mm. Cube test also carried out at the site. We need to do hammering 35 times for each three layers. After 7 days, we test the strength of the concrete using unit load, and do the same at the 28th day

d) How to make special blocks Special block is the small blocks make from cement, sand, and water. It is used as the concrete cover for columns, beams, slabs, and exc. Usually the dimensions of the blocks depend on the structure design.

Industrial Training Report

e) Estimate store capacity At this stage, I have to calculate the quantity of cement bags that can be stored in the material storage. f) Workers The workers had been divided into certain work such as concreting, carpenter, tukang besi. They work as teamwork in a building or for a certain structure. g) FDT Test(for soil) h) Conclusion i) As the conclusion, this industrial training had given me a lot of knowledge and new experiences towards my work after I finish my study afterwards. The valuable eight weeks of training was very meant to me as I had exposed to the real civil engineering works like preparing the reports, go to inspections, conducting the workers, and make order for construction materials. With the guidance from the site supervisor, I have learned many new technologies applied at the site that I can‟t be found in the formal lectures at the university. With those experiences, I can share with my friends about new technologies in Malaysia. j) From this industrial training also, I had known how to apply all the knowledge I gained in the class previously since I‟m in the diploma stage until now in the real engineering works. Besides that, I can refresh my mind about what I had learnt before and improve my understanding about the applications of those engineering software‟s like autocad, MATLAB, ESTEEM, and exc. Without this experiences, I would not know how to utilize these software‟s that will make our works easier

Industrial Training Report

and even faster. In the future, I have to learn more about software‟s used in civil engineering works. k) Last but not least, I can improve my communication skills through the industrial training; the communication with the staffs, persons from other department and with the community as this is one of the important skills an engineer have to acquire. After eight weeks of training, I‟ve found myself are ready to face the real civil engineering world soon. l) I have some suggestions to improve the industrial training in the future. Firstly, the faculty should extend the industrial training duration like the other faculty do that is six months of practical to give chance for the students to learn more and ready their self for the works. Secondly, the faculty should provide lists of good companies/consultants/contractors for the students to do their industrial training as their reference because some students had go to the places that don‟t give them much knowledge, and some students do have lot of knowledge but some do not. So, the students need the guide from the faculty. m) Industrial training is a good platform for the students to gain knowledge and experiences as much as they can. Without all these, they will not ready to face the real works and become a professional engineer as wished by the faculty and the university. n)
