We went to PAn Sheng Developement project of 2 storey Terrace House. We were accompanied by Mrs. Nurziah, Mrs. Ima and Mr. Fabian. We came there to watch how the piling process works.

- As i mentioned before, the project use Bakau pile instead of RC piles.
-For Bakau pile,it is important to determine the ground water table as Bakau stays good if there is water.
- Surface of the cross-section will be cut smoothly without any angle to avoid slippery during attachment.








- Piling machine with a 1 Tan Hammer.














- Using only the piling machine, to carry the bakau to the piling point shows the efficiency of using what they have around them.












-Working on the pile sleeves, attached for the the incoming Bakau.

















- A worker marked on the pile, maximum setting blow. From the marking point, they will calculate the settlement of a total 10 blow to determine the maximum hard stratum/ground.

- In the morning, went to Kingfisher semi-detached 2 storey house, on a joint inspection with Pan Sheng S/B. We SUDC as the land owner are joint venturing with Pan Sheng (Developer). These are some arguements happens during the inspection between SUDC and Pan Sheng as the developer. Since SUDC were the land owner, we were given the royalty in a sum of 28 units houses.

The purchaser of unit 5 and unit 7 came with us to inspect together. There's a lot of defects founded, but Pan Sheng doesn't want to take responsibility, since the liberty period has already ended. Most of the defects are caused by bad workmanship.

Hence SUDC agreed to do all the rectification work. We appointed our contractor to do the work. Here, in the picture, we can see Mr. Lim were discussing with the purchaser.

























SUDC foreman are inspecting for any problem causing the leak at the car-posh ceiling.













-Later on we went to SabaConcrete S/B. This time we're gonna do the test cube testing on our own. The cube we used for testing was not the concrete for any of SUDC's project. But it was especially made for our testing. There were a total of 3 grade 3o concrete cubes. All of them were 7 days old. We then do the calculation to determine the strength of the concrete. It was quite challenging because all the explanation were in Malay.

-Observe how the concrete were mix from a silo, to the lorry mixer for transportation to the construction site.

-Continue with structural Design check, for the same project but differrent section of structure.

-Assist Mr.Ali Hassan to divide an area in a drawing plan into 2 lots, (Lot A & Lot B). We used AutoCad for this task. It was quite challenging since the drawing plan was a photocopy, hence the coordinate seems divisible.
