1.1 SITE VISIT AND INTERVIEW

On April 16th, we went to a site visit and met up with the project coordinator which is
Encik Faizal. The project is located at Penanti, Permatang Pauh and it is about to construct a
fire station. An official title for this project is “Membina Dan Menyiapkan Balai Bomba Dan
Penyelamat Serta Kerja-Kerja Berkaitan Di Penanti, Permatang Pauh, Pulau Pinang.” Before
enter the site, a short and simple brief about the project was given by Encik Faizal.

The land size of the project is approximately 0.7 acres. For this project, the contractor
involved is Ambang Mutiara Enterprise and the developer is Jabatan Bomba Dan Penyelamat
Malaysia. These developments are liable to take care of this construction and ensure this
project is complete on time. Other than that, there are the following companies that also
involved in this project:

 Architect : Jamil Architect


 C&S : S.A.A. Consult Sdn. Bhd.
 M&E : Perunding HPL Sdn. Bhd.
 QS :Kementerian Kesejahteraan Bandar, Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan

The duration of the project is 15 months. Due to some delays, the total duration of this
project is 17 months. This project was started on December 21 st, 2016 and it might be end on
March 20th , 2018 but unfortunately, it was extended due to some problems and will ended on
May 29th, 2018 instead. Besides, there was also a slight delay due to bad weather.

A progress tracking critical path method (CPM) was used to make sure the work at the
site is tally with the planning. S-Curve was also used to allow the progress of a project to be
tracked visually over time, and form a historical record of what has happened to date. This
work program is made using Microsoft Project. The type of contract for the project is
traditional contract.

This project is cost RM2.5 billion. All the machineries cost does not requires huge
amount of money to rent and the amount of material used is minor. In term of materials and
structures, Encik Faizal also mentioned that they were using brc A7 for slab reinforcement.
The type of tile used is Guocera tile. It was mostly used in toilets and pantry. In addition, red
bricks was used for partitions walls. It also called as clay fire rated bricks.

So here is some questions that we asked during interview session:

1. Who was involved in this project and the person in charge?

Figure 1.0: Organization Chart

2. What is the duration of the project?


The duration of contract is about 15 months. This project was started on December
21st, 2016 and it might be end on March 20, 2018 but unfortunately, it was extended
according to some problems and will ended on May 29th, 2018 instead. They took 70
days delay from the real date to solve the problem.

3. What was the factors causing delay of building construction projects?


There was a problem to get a CCC from the authorities that causes of delay in the
construction. Encik Faizal once said that everyone will face the same problem when it
relates to the authorities and automatically it will delay the project. All the weathers
also were considered during this period.

4. Is there any incident happened on the construction site?


For this project, there was none incident happened because this is a small project so
the risk of dangers are not expected as a big project. Hence, all the machines used was
not a big machine and there was not much material.

2
5. What kind of safety was practiced on site?

Figure 1.1: Safety Sign at Site

6. How much the total amount of the whole project?


It was only took RM2.5 billion to cover this whole of project not including the
variation order (VO) or anything else. The amount VO was added when the contractor
itself make a mistake about the drawing plan and it will count differently from the
original amount.

7. Who was involved for every meetings and what was usually they were discussed
about?
There are many companies involved for every meetings which are Seberang Perai
Municipal Council (MPSP), Kementerian Kesejahteraan Bandar, Perumahan dan
Kerajaan Tempatan (KPKT) and etc. The meeting was carried for every month to
observe the progress of the project.

2.0 SITE SELECTION


2.1 SITE VISIT FOR STUDENT PROJECT

As for this Project Management subject, we are assigned to complete two different
tasks where the first one is to observe any ongoing construction project (50 – 80%) and
acquired any related information regarding the site progress. While for the second task,
we need to find any free lot with a potential of development. To obtain any related
information, we have to deal with local authority.
For the second task, we have chosen a free lot located at Bandar Perda near to Majlis
Perbandaran Seberang Prai (MPSP) and Taman Casa Idaman. The location and
information of the free lot were obtained from MPSP on 16th of April 2017. The total
acre for the free lot is 3.3 acre

At this free lot location, we proposed to build a 1 unit of 5-storey apartment. Based on
the information given by the staff of MPSP, there is no future development at the
location. One week after, we visited the site to obtain any further information about the
surrounding, services available an access road.

iii. Market (Economic) Analysis


A market economy is an economic system in which economic decisions and the
pricing of goods and services are guided solely by the aggregate interactions of a
country's individual citizens and businesses. There is little government
intervention or central planning. This is the opposite of a centrally planned
economy, in which government decisions drive most aspects of a country's
economic activity.

iv. Risk Analysis


Project Risk Analysis and Management is a process which enables the analysis
and management of the risks associated with a project. Properly undertaken it will
increase the likelihood of successful completion of a project to cost, time and
performance objectives

ii. Preliminary Investigation
 Land status – A piece of land near Seberang Perai Municipal Council was sold
around the market price to a developer because the Penang Regional
Development Authority (Perda) wanted affordable houses built there.

 Current and future development (plan for the desired site) – Based on one of
the Seberang Perai Municipal Council (MPSP) employee, high end
commercial shop at Bandar Perda, Bukit Mertajam potential on the future
development where available of unit 2storey Shop lot & 3 storey Shop lot.

 Surrounding, services available, access road – includes residential, industrial


and commercial properties in one place. Among the public facilities are
Sekolah Kebangsaan Bandar Baru Perda and Seberang Perai Municipal
Council is also located in Perda City. Meanwhile for the services, there are
KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital, Bank Rakyat, Bank Islam, Police Station
Seberang Perai Tengah and Fire Station Bandar Perda near the location. The
location is easily access via Jalan Perda Utama is strategically located at Jalan
Bandar Perda Utama, Bandar Perda Bukit Mertajam.

iii. Site Visit


 Distance from town center – The location is just 5 minutes away from Bukit
Mertajam town centre, 10 minutes from North-South Expressway.

 Population of the area

12
Figure 2.8: Population in Seberang Perai

Seberang Perai has experienced rapid population growth over the last two
decades. In 2001 its population stood at 736,306 persons. However, growth
was not evenly spread with most of it concentrated in the northern and central
parts of Seberang Perai. The rates of growth by Districts are 35% for SPU
(Northern District) and 43% for SPT (Central District) while SPS (Southern
District) experienced only 22% growth.

 Accessibility - The main thoroughfares within Bukit Mertajam include Jalan


Pasar and Jalan Kulim. In addition, both the North–South Expressway and
Federal Route 1 pass by Bukit Mertajam, linking the town with the rest of
Peninsular Malaysia. Similar in function to the aforementioned pan-Peninsular
expressway, the Bukit Mertajam railway station provides intercity rail
transportation towards other major cities.

iv. Technical Site Suitability Factors


 Accommodation for staff (contractor responsibility)
Temporary accommodation for staff has to be built to cause minimal
inconvenience to staff since it is hard to rent near the location.

13
 Local suppliers or sub-contractors availability (contractor responsibility)
Availability of local suppliers or sub-contractors can reduce the price of sub-
contracting.

 Material, Plant and Labor availability (contractor responsibility)


If they are available locally, it would ease the construction while reducing the
cost.

 Mode of Transportation to the site (contractor responsibility)


A good access road to the site is important for the purpose of transportation,
i.e. bringing in and out materials, plant and labor. An effective transportation
and logistics system ensures on time delivery of the right materials to your
site, while reducing your costs.

 Services (water, electricity, telephone) availability


Services available will reduce the contribution cost and construction cost. 
Available services or in close proximity will reduce contribution cost to TNB,
JKR, or Telekom and construction cost will be cheaper due to length shorten
for services/facilities involved.

 Environment 
Understanding on geological components such as geologic hazard (flooding,
erosion, slope failures and subsidence) are important so that the construction
activities can be carried out according to the adopted designs with minimal
impacts on the geological environments. The project will also affect the
surrounding.

 Flood Level (if any) and existing Drainage


The proposed site is located on the low lying area and it was flooded before. In
2017, the State Government through the Seberang Perai Municipal Council
(MPSP) has proposed RM9.45 million projects to address the flash flood
issue, of which RM7.5 million is for the maintenance of monsoon trench and

14
reservoir, maintenance pump houses of RM0.25 million and RM1.7 million
for maintenance projects in industrial areas.

Figure 2.9: Historical records for rainfall in March 2018

 Topography 

Topographic maps are detailed, accurate graphic representations of features


that appear on the Earth's surface. These features include:

 Cultural: roads, buildings, urban development, railways, airports, names


of places and geographic features, administrative boundaries, state and
international borders, reserves
 Hydrography: lakes, rivers, streams, swamps, coastal flats
 Relief: mountains, valleys, contours and cliffs, depressions
 Vegetation: wooded and cleared areas, vineyards and orchards.

2.3 BUILDING SETTING OUT

Surveying is a process of determining the positions of points or stations on the


earth surface by measuring the horizontal distances, vertical distances, and angle of
these points. The main equipment used for setting out is an electronic theodolite. The
location selected to do the setting out is in UiTM Pulau Pinang’s field.

From the data collected, maps and sections can be prepared, also amount of earth
work can be calculated. Setting out is important to determine an area to be covered by
project. After setting out activity is done, we can determine the position of the
building, access road, drainage system, accommodation for staff, position of plant,
material storage and utilities.

3.4 STANDARD CONDITION CONTRACT

The type of contract that we used is the most commonly used method which is the
Traditional Contract. In this contract, the design and construction stage are separated
which consultant and architect are in charge of the design. Meanwhile, the contractor will
be handling the construction of the project. Below is the general flowchart of Traditional
Contract:

CLIENT/OWNER

CONSULTANT
(Architect / Civil Engineer, QS)

MAIN CONTRACTOR

SUB-CONTRACTOR NOMINATED SUB- NOMINATED SUPPLIER


(SC) CONTRACTOR (NSC) (NS)

Next, the contractor must submit the Bill of Quantities of the project on the specified
date and time that has been informed. Traditional contract is a fixed price type of

22
contract. Payments are made based on the each item and works that executed in the Bill
of Quantities as the rate are mentioned on every single item. The contractor that capable
to provide the lowest and reasonable price will be chosen to run the project.

This contract also gives so many benefits to the client. Firstly, fix contract sum which
means the owner, designers and constructor know the quantity of the project and the
procedures and contractual rule of conduct have been worked out and are well
understood. Secondly, sequential function is indicates that the project is more likely to
proceed smoothly from beginning to end. Lastly, this type of contact builds a competitive
tender among the contractors. This represents that this open bidding procedure gives the
owner the lowest price available in marketplace and presumably the greatest and
economic efficiency because the lowest bidders is the winner.
3.5 UNIFORM BUILDING BY LAW (UBBL)
Introduction
All Project in Malaysia is run based on the UBBL. It is mandatory to apply UBBL on
every single project because the building to be occupied must be equipped with the best

 Receive copies of records of work-related injuries and illnesses that
occur in their workplace.

30
IV. Site Planning and Layout

i. Site Security
 Install hoardings instead of fences around the perimeter as these are
more difficult to climb and stop people viewing the construction site.
 Larger construction sites may require 24 hours guarding including
patrolling and static guarding.
 Minimize the amount of machinery and plants on site, and move into a
secure area after working hours.

ii. Safe Means of Access


 Routes need to be clearly marked out and well maintained to allow
personnel and others on site to exit quickly in the event of an
emergency.
 Construction work should be fenced off and suitably signed and
warned.
 Separate pedestrian route for them to continue their journeys without
incident.

iii. Storage of Materials


 Store based on the physical properties such as size, shape, weight and
mode of delivery.
 Do not store materials where they obstruct access routes or where they
could interfere with emergency escape.
 Flammable materials usually need to be stored away from other
materials and protected from accidental ignition

iv. Lifting Appliances

31
