C. Areas of Training

The on-the-job training program focuses on the field of Civil Engineer on actual on-site practice.

The areas of training are as follows:

 Site Observation/ Site Inspection

Site observation/ inspection is a must so as to ensure that the construction

plans and specifications are being followed. It is also comprised of safety inspection to

assure that the construction workers and personnel working on-site wear proper personal

protective equipment. Every inspection, there is always an engineer in-charge to supervise

the interns to assure their safety. During site inspection, the engineer would always explain

every process done and materials that can be seen on site. The following are the works

I’ve observed during inspection:

 Water Proofing Estimation

 Pile Hacking

 Pile Driving

 Concrete Pouring

 Rebar Estimation

 Surveying

 Engineering Management

 Material Testing

Material testing is done to guarantee that the materials being used

passes the required standards, to ensure that the materials are of safe to use. Concrete is

21
 one of the crucial element in construction. Therefore, the concrete mix to be used are

ensured to pass the concrete testing. The day of the schedule of concrete pouring, slump

and flow test were done and concrete mix were put into cylinders. After 7 days, the 7-day

cured specimen were brought to testing site and were tested. Together with Engr. Nikki

and fellow intern, I was able to witness the concrete testing for the mix used in roof deck.

 Computation

Computation of linear meter, height, area, volume and quantity are

important to be determined for estimation. During my internship, I was given the tasked to

compute for the concrete hollow block (CHB) walls consisting of 100mm CHB and 150mm

CHB on the 15th floor of the building. Given the floor plan, I was able to compute for the

linear meter while the height was obtained using framing plan consisting of beams, girders

and slabs.

 Plan Analysis

It is done to understand the plan and to be able to execute it accurately.

My first task as an intern is to study and analyze the construction plans of SPIOL project. I

was asked to familiarize myself to the plans not only on structural but on architectural,

plumbing, electrical, mechanical and fire protection as well. I was also tasked to become

the leader in estimating of water proofing.

 Monitoring

It is done to make sure whether the items are in good condition or the

work in progress is done accurately as planned. During my internship, the engineer would

22
 allow me to come along and check on materials such as piles and pile driving analyzer.

When there is scheduled concrete pouring, we would monitor the process starting from

slump testing and molding of concrete mix into cylinders up to concrete pouring on slabs,

columns, beams and girders together with our supervisor. The slump test should attain a

certain height to make sure that the mix would be flow able; would be able to travel up to

higher floors with the help of pump crete.

D. Reference Materials

The book Simplified Construction Estimates by Max Fajardo Jr. (2000) was used as

reference material during the internship.
