MEASUREMENT 1

Introduction 

This is the main subject of this semester which can be considered as one of the most important subject as we will probably use mainly of what we had learnt from measurement 1 on our jobs in the future. For this subject, we have two assignments which are divided into individual and group followed by a mid-term test as well as a final exam. The first assignment is to calculate the quantity and the cost of the material needed in construction. In this assignment, we are divided into groups consisting of 7 group member. Throughout this group assignment, we will have to learn to read technical drawings in order to calculate the materials and cost for construction. Moreover, I have learn about taking off list, excavation and earthwork, concrete work, formwork, reinforcement bars, mesh fabric reinforcement and so on. As this is a group assignment, I have learn to work together with my group mates as well as improving my interpersonal skill by communicating with group members when solving any problems faced during assignment. 

Besides, the second assignment is an individual assignment which is preparing a site report. This site report includes 3 subjects which are Measurement 1, Construction Technology and Building Materials. To prepare this report, a site visit was organized for us. The site is located at Puchong area which is 30 minutes away from campus. During the site visit, i get to observe how the workers work and the working process of construction. I have also learnt the safety precautions need to be taken on site such as wearing safety helmet. For this assignment, I get the opportunity to see the practical aspect of construction work and able to compare between those i have learnt in the aspect of theory. Furthermore, by preparing this site report, I have learnt to manage well of my time and also to present the information collected from site visit in an organized manner.
