 Introduction

1.1 Project Overview

Sunway Subang Business Park is modern industrial factories spans across 6.5 acres of
leasehold land housing 45 unit of 2.5 storey terrace factories that will be located in Selangor.
A modern industrial development that is equipped with tight security system with perimeter
fencing and CCTV surveillance to prevent unauthorised entry while ensuring the safety and
security of the businesses. The development designed for SMEs in the light industries and
manufacturing or upgraders that require spaces that favour commercial usage for showrooms,
warehouses, and trading. Sunway Subang serves as an advantage to investors and business
magnets to position their full value chain.

Unique features of the Sunway Subang Business Park include 24 hours Guarded with
perimeter fencing & CCTV surveillance, 3 Phase 100 Amps power supply, double volume
ceiling height at 23 ft, high floor landing 10KN/M2, 66 ft wide main road & 40 ft wide back
lane road, ample parking space and motorized roller shutters. The business park is in the
vicinity of Subang Airport and well connected to major parts of Klang Valley, Shah Alam,
Sungai Buloh, Petaling Jaya, Bukit Jelutong, Ara Damansara & Subang Jaya. The location
has great accessibility to NKVE, Guthrie Corridor Expressway, KESAS, Federal & NPE.

1.2 Project Time, Cost and Quality

The objective of the project is to develop light industrial, commercial business park
built on sustainability. This project has distinctive attributes that distinguish it from ongoing
work or business operations. The construction process and have definitive start dates and end
dates. This characteristic is important because a large part of the project effort is dedicated to
ensuring that the project construction is completed at the appointed time. To do this,
schedules are created showing when tasks should begin and end. The construction of project
began on December 2019 and is expected to be fully operated on July 2020. Time is often the
most frequent project oversight in developing projects. This is reflected in missed deadlines
and incomplete deliverables due to recent Covid-19 crisis. Proper control of the schedule
requires the careful identification of tasks to be performed and accurate estimations of their
durations, the sequence in which they are going to be done, and how people and other
resources are to be allocated.

The budget of overall construction of the project is estimated roughly around RM 24

million. The budget approved for the project including all necessary expenses needed to
deliver the project. It includes land acquisition, planning and feasibility studies, architectural
and engineering design, construction, field supervision of construction, insurance and taxes
during construction and inspection & testing. Poorly executed budget plans can result in a
last-minute rush to spend the allocated funds. For virtually all projects, cost is ultimately a
limiting constraint. For example, few projects can go over budget without eventually
requiring a corrective action. A total of 45 units of 2.5 storey terrace factories will be sell
starting from RM 2.4 million onwards per unit.

The project was developed with an effective and processes including quality
assurance and quality control procedure to achieve its objective. Risk and hazard factors were
considered to provide requisite level of quality. All construction works done by the contractor
are according to the approved standard operating procedure (SOP). The project execution is a
dynamic process. The team that were involved in the construction must communicate, meet
on a regular basis and adapt to changing conditions. This is to ensure that the project
objectives are met if the quality management plan may require modification.

 Super Structure
2.1 Ground Beam

Super structure is an upward extension of an existing structure above foundation. This

term is applied to various kinds of physical structures such as buildings and bridges. This
structure includes ground beam, beam, and column. After the work of foundation is
completed, the first stage of construction of super structure started from ground beam. A
ground beam is a reinforced concrete beam for supporting walls at ground level. Its purpose
is to link the piles together and provide a platform for further superstructure construction.

2.1.1 Method Statement

1. Make sure that the reinforcement steels that reach the site are in good condition.
2. Deposit the delivered steels properly near each related section of site.
3. Install the reinforcement steels according to engineering drawing approved by
engineer.
4. Bind the steel tightly and make sure that any loose binders in reinforcement steel
is rejected.
5. Engineer must check and approve reinforcement steel of ground beams before
installing formwork.
6. Install formwork as per approved layouts and dimension.
7. Treat all formwork with oil and saturate with water immediately before concrete
placement.
8. Properly support the formwork to avoid any distortion during concreting work.
9. The formwork will be checked and approved by site engineer before casting.
10. During concreting work, mechanical vibrators shall be used to properly compact
the concrete.
11. Clean and clear water must be used during curing process.

2.1.2 Advantage
Ground beam is designed to span between pad foundations and piles as an alternative
to traditional foundations. The advantage of using ground beams are;

 Quicker to install than conventional footing

 Support brick work, and block work
 Allow uncertainties regarding ground conditions to be overcome
 Create a very accurate bearing level, reducing the amount of levelling
up that is required prior to starting to build up the superstructure.
 May also be used at the edge of in situ concrete floor slabs where they
form permanent shuttering.
2.2 Beam

Similar to the ground beam, beam is a horizontal structural element that primarily
resist loads applied laterally to the beam axis. Beam can be constructed using steel and timber
but for the project mentioned, reinforced concrete is used. A concrete only beam under
certain load will crack at the tension side and the beam will collapse if tensile reinforcement
is not provided. The steel bars inside the concrete beam act as resistance to the tensile force
while the concrete resist compressive force. There are many types of beam such as simply
supported beam, fixed beam and cantilevered beam.

2.2.1 Method Statement

1. Make sure that the reinforcement steels that reach the site are in good condition.
2. Deposit the delivered steels properly near each related section of site.
3. Install the reinforcement steels according to engineering drawing approved by
engineer.
4. Bind the steel tightly and make sure that any loose binders in reinforcement steel is
rejected.
5. Engineer must check and approve reinforcement steel of beams before installing
formwork.
6. Install formwork as per approved layouts and dimension.
7. Install adjustable props adequately as support for the formwork to avoid any distortion
during concrete work.
8. Treat all formwork with oil and saturate with water immediately before concrete
placement.
9. The formwork will be checked and approved by site engineer before casting.
10. During concreting work, mechanical vibrators shall be used to properly compact the
concrete.
11. Clean and clear water must be used during curing process.

2.2.2 Mode of Failure in Beam

1. Bending is probably the most common type of failure happen in beam structure. It is
illustrated by the bottom figure in which the “fibers” along the bottom part of the
beam are torned and those along the top part of the beam are crushed.
2. Horizontal shear is tendency of material in beam to separate parallel to the neutral
axis as its internal layer and try to slide past each other.
3. Vertical shear is an idealized mode of failure. There is tendency for a short beam to
fail in this manner. This is the way in which pair of shear or scissors cuts a piece of
paper.

2.3 Column

Column is a vertical load-bearing element which are normally loaded in compression.

The functions are mainly subjected to axial forces and support the weight of the roof and
upper floor and transfer it to the sub structure. A reinforced concrete column designed to
carry compressive loads, composed of concrete with an embedded steel frame to provide
reinforcement. For design purposes, the columns are separated into two categories which are
short columns and slender columns. Column can be made of wood, steel, masonry and
reinforced concrete can be made of wood, steel and masonry but reinforced concrete is used
for the project mentioned.

2.3.1 Method Statement

1. Make sure that the reinforcement steels that reach the site are in good condition.
2. Deposit the delivered steels for column properly near each related section of site.
3. Install the reinforcement steels according to engineering drawing approved by
engineer.
4. Bind the steel tightly and make sure that any loose binders in reinforcement steel is
rejected. The reinforcement bars should be retained in exact location tightly from
sway with proper scaffolding arrangement.
5. Engineer must check and approve reinforcement steel of each column before
installing formwork.
6. Install formwork as per approved layouts and dimension.
7. Install adjustable props adequately as support for the formwork to avoid any distortion
during concrete work.
8. Treat all formwork with oil and saturate with water immediately before concrete
placement.
9. The formwork will be checked and approved by site engineer before casting.
10. During concreting work, mechanical vibrators shall be used to properly compact the
concrete layer by layer. Proper staged platform should be provided during concreting.
11. Clean and clear water must be used during curing process.

2.3.2 Mode of Failure in Column

1. Extremely short thick columns are most likely to fail in simple compressive crushing.
Every building material can withstand a distinct amount of compressive stress before
it crushes. This value has been determined by lab tests and is known as the
compressive strength of a material.
2. Slender columns are more apt to fail buckling. A column is considered slender when
it has smaller cross-section compared to its effective length.
