Introduction on this project!In this project, we were assigned to search for a piece of land in the size between 50m x 50m (2500m2) – 50m x 70m (3500m2) somewhere in Malaysia and initiate a small construction project along with a report proposal.!

The size of the land chosen shall not be bigger than 50m x 70m (3500m2) and not smaller than 50m x 50m (2500m2). What stated in the brief is that we are required to propose one project that serves on any one or combination of two or more of the purposes which are Recreation area ,Commercial area ,Industrial area, Agricultural area, Tourism area and Residential area.!

The objective of this project is to enable students to develop an understanding of the building team, its organization, duties and inter-relations. Other than that, this project is to develop an awareness of their professional responsibilities and to appreciate their profession in the construction industry. Besides that , this project is also a chance for us to deepen our understanding of our knowledge of the process in which it takes to submit the accurate building proposal to our local authorities.!

LIST OF PROFESSIONS INVOLVED AND TASKS!!1. Geotechnic Engineer!!Geotechnical engineering is a discipline within civil engineering related to the performance of soil and rock mechanics, including their subsurface conditions, determination of the physical, mechanical, and chemical properties that will influence the project under consideration, Site investigations are needed to gain an understanding of the area in or on which the engineering will take place. Investigations can include the assessment of the risk to humans, property and the environment from natural hazards such as earthquake, landslide and sinkhole. After necessary evaluation, design of the earthworks is carried out, and subsequently supervision of the site, foundation, and construction is carried out.!!2. Land Surveyor!!A land surveyor is the government authorised specialist who is licensed to determine boundaries, they determine the relative positions of places on or beneath the surface of the earth by measuring distances, directions and elevations. They are the first professionals to carry out physical work on the construction site.!!!!

Page 20: Ici final-pdf

3. Architect!!The architects provide various designs, then prepares drawings and a report presenting ideas to the client based on his needs. Computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology has replaced traditional paper and pencil as the most common method for creating design and construction drawings. After discussing and agreeing on the initial proposal, architects develop final construction plans that show the building's appearance and details for its construction. The plan is then passed to the Structural Engineer for his own design. !4. Structural Engineer !Structural Engineering is concerned with the research, planning, design, construction, inspection, monitoring, maintenance, rehabilitation and demolition of permanent and temporary structures, as well as structural systems and their components. It also considers the technical, economic, environmental, aesthetic and social aspects of structures.!!5. Quantity Surveyor!!A Quantity Surveyor is a construction industry professional who specialises in estimating the value of construction works. . This may include new buildings, renovations or maintenance work, from early design costs to final figures. QS works on a wide variety of projects covering all aspects

Page 21: Ici final-pdf

of construction such as civil, mining and infrastructure projects to determine the cost of such facilities.!!6. Building Service Engineers!!Building services engineering is an aspect handled by Mechanical and Electrical Engineers they are referred to as (M&E), in the local Nigerian parlance it called plumbing and electrical, in some countries it’s called (MEP) engineering adding plumbing or public health. This involves the production and maintenance of a stable internal environment that has the correct temperature, air quality and lighting levels. It requires the provision of all the necessary backup support systems such as power, hot and cold water and lifts. The installation of life protection systems such as fire alarms, and sprinkler systems is an important responsibility as well. These functions must be linked to sophisticated building management systems to ensure effective control and to minimise energy consumption.!!7. Building Contractor!!The building contractor draws up a plan to carry out the construction project. This extends anywhere from hiring workers to developing a step-by-step timeline that the project will follow from start to finish. The BC is responsible for hiring, supervising, firing and payment of workers alongside obtaining materials for the project to precise specifications, mostly using the services of suppliers.!!

PROPOSAL (YONG AI YI)!INTRODUCTION!On this land I decided to build a 7 story building with three levels of lower ground floor and also a rooftop for commercial I called this building as food paradise mall. This mall only consist of shops that related to food only. I decided to build this food paradise mall is because to create a place for people to enjoy many kind of food in one place. They don’t need to go different places to search their favourite food. This can make them reduce wasting their time to find food. In my opinion, it is really a hard question when comes to decided what should I eat for my breakfast, lunch and also dinner. So, by creating a food mall will have many choices. Other than that, this is also a place where people can chill and enjoy their weekend at food mall.!

Three levels of lower ground floor will be parking spaces because our site lack of parking spaces. Ground floor of this building is lobby. First floor is for Malay cuisine restaurant and shops. Second floor is for Indian cuisine restaurant and shops. Third floor is for Chinese cuisine restaurants and shops fourth floor is for Korean cuisine restaurants and shops. Fifth floor is for Japanese cuisine restaurants and shops. Sixth floor is for western cuisine restaurants and shops. The top floor, which is the seventh floor is for dessert restaurants and shops. For the rooftop, there will be a bar and lounge area.!

The design for each floor will be in modern style but also with their own characteristic. For example, first floor Malay

Page 24: Ici final-pdf

cuisine restaurants and shops will be design in a style with Malay characteristic such as texture of batik.!

� !

Benefits!The benefits to build this food paradise mall is our site is easily accessible from the many various roads leading to it, the site is in the city, Kuala Lumpur. Our site near to residential area, commercial areas and also education area. In my knowledge KL is a place that always go through heavy jamming situation.so, people are less likely to go through traffic jam when they go home. Also there are a lot of company such as banks and business area near at my site. Therefore workers at there will find restaurant to having their brunch. So this would be a perfect place to build a food mall. Other than that, KL is a place where a lot of tourist would visit, so they can experience different kind of cuisine in a mall.!

Impacts!My site is in a city so this place is compact and noisy. Other than that, there will be no any empty space at that particular area.!

The amount of traffic becomes a little too overwhelming. So people will go for food mall to have their brunch while waiting the jamming to disperse.!

Since my site is at the city so there will be air pollution situation and sometimes there are even haze occurs in that city.!

� !Contractor!Contractors are responsible for overseeing construction on both new and old buildings and structures. A contractor helps to organize and manage all aspects of a building site. The job requires someone who is detail-oriented and who enjoys working on construction sites but may not be enthusiastic about rewiring cables or rerouting plumbing themselves. The primary duties of the contractor are responsible for completing a building project on time and within a budget. Contractors don’t usually do any of the heavy lifting in a construction site themselves, but they oversee teams of subcontractors who are doing the work. The principal contractor has an absolute duty to prepare the construction phase plan prior to construction commencement, and develop, communicate, implement and amend the plan as necessary to maintain its sufficiency to

Page 51: Ici final-pdf

effectively plan, manage and monitor the construction work. This should ensure that the work is performed, so far as reasonably practicable, without risks to health and safety.!

Plan and manage the construction processes!

The principal contractor has an absolute duty to plan, manage and monitor the construction such that the work is performed in a safe and healthy manner, so far as reasonably practicable. As part of this, the principal contractor shall facilitate co- operation and co-ordination between contractors, and designers if required, and the application of the general principles of prevention.!

To achieve this obligation, the principal contractor must review the risk assessments and written safe system of work (method statements) produced by the various contractors engaged on the project to ensure that:!

! !  they are safe and comply with health and safety law and standards; !

! !  adequately describe the safe method of working; and !

! !  Will not cause additional risk to themselves or others due to interactions with other activities being performed in the same place at the same time. !

� � !The principal contractor needs to monitor the way in which the work is being carried out to ensure that the precautions and rules specified in the construction phase plan are being followed. The monitoring will also establish whether the precautions prescribed are effective in the elimination, reduction and control of risk. Without any monitoring, the

Page 52: Ici final-pdf

construction phase plan may not adequately control the processes and the associated risks. This does not mean that the principal contractor must directly supervise other contractor's work.!

In planning, managing and monitoring the health and safety of the site the principal contractor must give detailed consideration to:!

! !  emergency arrangements and procedures (e.g. fire, bomb threat, means of escape, evacuation, confined spaces) !

! !  use and shared use of work equipment (e.g. cranes hoists, lifts, suspended access) !

! !  coordinating contractor activities so that they do not create hazards for each other As part of the arrangements for managing site health and safety, the principal contractor on all projects will need to include within the construction phase plan the: !

! !  Fire risk assessment and fire safety plan for the site; !

! !  The site traffic management plan, ensuring so far as is reasonably practicable that pedestrians within the site are segregated from transport and plant; providing site rules for the movement of transport and plant where this segregation has not been achieved, e.g. banks persons and high visibility clothing; !

! !  Waste management arrangements, which for projects that have a construction value of more than £300,000 will be contained within the Site Waste Management Plan, as required by the Site Waste

Page 53: Ici final-pdf

Management Plans Regulations 2008 (SWMP). It should be noted that the principal contractor appointed under CDM may not be the same principal contractor appointed !

under the Site Waste Management Plans Regulations, although it makes sense for this to be the case. The appointments of CDM principal contractor and the appointment of the SWMP principal contractor must both be made in writing by the client.!

The Principal Contractor must also ensure that other contractors plan, manage and monitor their own work, including performing inspections and audits.!

Monitoring is performed both proactively and reactively. The proactive monitoring would involve site tours, inspections and audits, with reactive monitoring being the investigation into the causes of accidents and incidents that occur on the site.!

To enable the principal contractor to comply with this requirement, contractors have a duty to inform the principal contractor of any accident of incident that is reportable to the HSE under the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995 (RIDDOR). However, it would also be useful for the principal contractor to be informed of other, non-reportable, accidents and incidents. This could be instructed under contract or as part of the construction phase plan.!

Architect!An architect is hired by a client to produce detailed of a concept or idea that the client wants to bring to reality.

Page 54: Ici final-pdf

Architect need to comply with building and safety regulations, local planning regulations and restrictions. Depending on the project there may be laws surrounding the preservation of the local environment or any historic part of a building. Regular client meeting are important to establish requirements and discuss detailed design proposals. Heading up the team of professionals who will work on this stage of the project including engineers, designers and financiers is also essential.!

During the documentation phase, the responsibilities are to producing design, detailed drawings and using technology such as CAD to test the feasibility of the design. Architect need to consider about client’s requirements, budget and regulations. Once the design documents are complete, there are then a second set of documents that need to be produced.!

These are the construction documents, which translate the design into instructions and technical specifications for contractors and construction experts to refer. Once the project reaches the construction stage, the architect need to be involved in site visits and meetings, overseeing the contractors and signing off on various pieces of work, negotiating with contractors and dealing with and resolving any problems that arise. The steps that architect need to undergone before and during construction is meeting , client brief to initial design, developed design , detailed design ,tendering for a contractor and the last one is construction.!

Step 1 – meeting!

Page 55: Ici final-pdf

Before an architect start to design, there will be a meeting between architect and his client to discuss about the project. They will discuss about estimation of fee of the architect before starting a project.!

� !Step 2 – client brief to initial design!

Architect and the client will discuss about the detail requirement and aspiration. This process is important that client can advise the architect of his budget, time frame and any other parameters, as there will affect the design. The information he provide for his architect is called “The Brief”. The architect will analyse the brief requirements and present initial design proposals.!

Step 3 – developed design!

To translate the brief to design, architect will create the initial proposal into a more developed design. At the developed design stage, architect will need to finalise the layout of spaces, the materials for the construction and incorporate the work of any specialist consultants, such as a structural engineer who will advise on the structure.!

Step 4 – detailed design!

After client satisfies with the architect’s design, architect will proceed into detailed drawings, including site work and specification finishes.!

Step 5 – tendering for a contractor!

Architect will prepare Forms of Tender for the main and specialist contractor. It Is advise to have at least three contractors submit costings (tenders) for a project. As each

Page 56: Ici final-pdf

contractor will base their costing on the same information, tenders can be compared and analysed and the best price found. Architect and quantity surveyor will also help the client to evaluate the tenders received.!

Step 6 - Construction!

During construction, architect will act on behalf of client as an independent advisor, inspecting the building work at intervals to ensure that it is being carried out generally in accordance with the contract documents. Architect will administer the contract and!

advise the client on stage payments during the projects. The architect’s work continues until after the building work.!

Quantity Surveyor!A quantity surveyor manages all cost relating to building and civil engineering projects, from the initial calculations to the final figures. Quantity surveyor seek to minimise the costs of a project and enhance value for money, while still achieves the required standards and quality. Many of these are specified by statutory building regulations, which the surveyor needs to understand and adhere to.!

A quantity surveyor may work for either the client or the contractor, working in an office or on site. They are involved in a project from the start, preparing estimates and costs of the work. When the project is in the contract that may effects costs and create reports to show profitability. The tittle of the job may also be referred to as a construction cost consultant or commercial manager.!

Before construction starts!

Page 57: Ici final-pdf

Quantity surveyors can help with feasibility studies for a project. They can roughly estimate what’s involved in the project, based on measurements of the designer’s or client’s sketches.!

The quantity surveyor studies the architects’ and engineers’ plans, identifies the costs involved, and then sets an overall estimated budget for the project. They may compare the project with others like it.!

The quantity surveyor can then plan costs to help the design team stay within the project budget using practical solutions. This is called value engineering.!

The final detailed estimate is prepared by the quantity surveyor, together with a project architect. This is the basis for evaluating tenders.!

� !When construction starts, the quantity surveyor keeps costs on track!

Once the building starts, the quantity surveyor can provide cash flow data so the client can arrange the finances needed for each stage of the project.!

The quantity surveyor can also assess cost effects when changes to the project occur, such as delays, and agree on ‘variation’ with contractors.!

The quantity surveyor can provide a bank with a project report and help a client by preparing draw down certificates for money to be loaned by the bank.!

Resolving disputes between clients, designers and building contractors is another role in some projects.!

Page 58: Ici final-pdf

When construction is over, the quantity surveyor adds up the total cost!

The quantity surveyor can prepare a statement of final account, which records the actual costs for all sections of the job.!

Civil and Structural Engineer!The role of the structural engineer is a key component in the construction process. Part of the wider discipline of civil engineering, structural engineering is concerned with the design and physical integrity of buildings and other large structures, like tunnels and bridges. Structural engineers have wide range of responsibilities - not least a duty to ensure the safety and durability of the project on which they are working.!

Unlike architects, who must focus on the appearance, shape, size and use of the building, structural engineers must solve technical problems - and help the architect achieve his or her vision for the project.!

Structural engineers work in offices and on construction sites - or may split their time between both contexts. Locations can be varied, including work in metropolitan and rural environments. Depending on the size of the project, structural engineers may also be required to work long hours - in teams consisting of professional, skilled and semi-skilled workers.!

� !Structural engineers must have a strong grasp of physics, three-dimensional conceptual skills and creative problem solving. Outside of an ability to apply principles of

Page 59: Ici final-pdf

mechanics, mathematics and physics to construct safe, sustainable buildings, the roles and responsibilities of structural engineers include:!

Design:!

Many structural engineers deal primarily in the design of structures - calculating the loads and stresses the construction will have to safely withstand. Structural engineers should be able to factor in the different qualities and strengths delivered by a range of building materials, and understand how to incorporate support beams, columns and foundations.!

Investigation:!

Before work can begin, structural engineers are involved in the investigation and survey of build sites to determine the suitability of the earth for the requirements of the upcoming project.!

Communication:!

Structural engineers will be required to co-ordinate and consult with other members of their projects, including engineers, environmental scientists, architects and landscape architects. They may also be required to assist government bodies in their own inspections relating to the project.!

Management:!

Structural engineers are often responsible for the organisation and delivery of materials and equipment for the needs of the construction project. The supervision and management of on-site labour may also be a necessity.!

Page 60: Ici final-pdf

� � � � !Civil engineers work at the highest level of design and plan large infrastructure projects, such as airports and roadways, which requires solving complex problems. Civil engineers must determine the feasibility of plans, especially regarding financial costs and safety concerns. Urban and regional planners often look to civil engineers for advice on these issues. Civil engineers are ultimately responsible for the infrastructure project’s design and implementation. Therefore, they must be able to lead surveyors, construction managers, civil engineering technicians, and others to implement the plan.!

Civil engineers use the principles of calculus, trigonometry, and other advanced topics in mathematics for analysis, design, and troubleshooting in their work. Only licensed civil engineers can sign the plans for infrastructure projects. This makes it imperative that civil engineers be able to monitor and evaluate the work at the job site as a project progresses. Civil engineers must be able to communicate with other professionals, such as architects, landscape architects, and urban and regional planners. This means that civil engineers must be able to write clear reports that people without an engineering background can follow.!

Many civil engineers hold supervisory or administrative positions ranging from supervisor of a construction site to city engineer. Others work in design, construction, research, and teaching. They work with others on projects and may be assisted by civil engineering technicians and technologists. Various levels of government employ civil engineers to do many of the same things done in private industry, except that the government-employed civil engineers may also inspect projects to be sure that they comply with regulations.!

Page 61: Ici final-pdf

A civil engineer's tasks typically involve the following:!

! !  Analyse survey reports, maps, and other data to plan projects !

! !  Consider construction costs, government regulations, potential environmental hazards, and other factors in planning stages !

! !  Test soils to determine the adequacy and strength of foundations !

! !  Test building materials, such as concrete, asphalt, or steel, for use in particular projects !

! !  Provide cost estimates for materials, equipment, or labour to determine a project’s economic feasibility !

! !  Use design software to plan and design transportation systems, hydraulic systems, and structures in line with industry and government standards !

! !  Oversee, or participate in, surveying to establish reference points, grades, and elevations to guide construction !

! !  Present their findings to the public on topics such as bid proposals, environmental impact statements, or property descriptions !

Page 62: Ici final-pdf

Mechanical and Electrical Engineer!Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies the principles of engineering, physics and material science for the design, analysis, manufacturing and maintenance of mechanical system. They work on a project from the initial brief, through the design and development stage to the testing phase and following the project through right up implementation, right down to producing details of specification and outline designs. Mechanical and electrical engineering need to discuss and cooperate with architect and produce an electrical plan. During construction, the engineers need to monitor the installation process. After the construction, mechanical and electrical engineering also have responsible on maintenance in certain time limit 2 to 3 years.!

Supplier!A supplier is a supply chain management term that means anyone who provides goods or services to a company or individuals. Supplier is the one who supplies materials to the site. He needs to test and check the materials to ensure they are safe and free of faults and consistently meet any mandatory standards that apply. Next, he needs to ensure the installation of materials and equipment goes smoothly. Supplier is also sometimes recognized as subcontractor because of their large contribution to a project.!

CONCLUSION!In conclusion, I learned that there are many profession which involved in construction which are architect, contractor, quantity surveyor, civil engineer and other profession. These profession has their own roles and jobs to accomplish their task in a constructions. Other than that, to construct a construction need to do a lot of planning and preparations.!

From this project, I learned how to do analysis on site and understand what the site suitable to build what kind of building.!
