All tools, equipment and vehicles must be properly maintained so that workers are not
endangered. Construction regulations require inspections of vehicles, tools, machines and
equipment before use.
Preventive maintenance is the systematic care and protection of tools, equipment, machines
and vehicles in order to keep them in a safe, usable condition, limit downtime and extend
productivity. We must always be aware that maintenance tasks themselves are potentially
hazardous and can result in injury. The successful maintenance program is:
 well organized and scheduled,

 controls hazards,
 defines operational procedures, and
 trains key personnel.

mould shall be filled in the presence of the Engineer or his Representative
with concrete of the same mix and batch from which the preliminary test
cubes are made and shall be compacted in the same manner and with the
same equipment as proposed for the works. This procedure shall, be
repeated with modified mixes until the appearance of concrete after
removing the mould is acceptable to the Engineer or his Representative
after which it shall be used as the standard for that class and finish.
9.12.6. Sampling And Testing

9.12.6.1. Works Cube Test Procedure
A. Samples of concrete for tests shall be taken a cube made, as and when
directed by the Engineer.
B. Normally for each class on concrete, 8 cubes shall be made for each 15
cu.m of concrete, or part thereof in each day’s work. This number of
cubes may be reduced if consistently satisfactory results are obtained or
increased up to a maximum of 16 when in the opinion of the Engineer or
his Representative; additional tests are required as for example in the
early stages of the works.
C. Test cubes shall be made, cured and stored under the same conditions as
the works to which they relate and shall be transported and tested in
compression in accordance with BS 1881. The tests shall be carried out in
a laboratory approved by the Engineer. Reports of all tests shall be
supplied to the Engineer or his Representative within 24 hours of the
cubes being tested.
D. Every test cube shall be clearly and permanently marked with its code
number and date of casting together with an indication of the part of the
works to which it relates. The Engineer or his Representative shall decide
the system of identifying and marking the cubes.
E. A record of such tests identifying the test cubes with the part of the work
executed shall be kept on the site and made available to the Engineer or
his Representative on request.

using samples obtained from the batches used in casting of the test cubes
for the trial mixes. Tests shall also be carried at the discretion of the
Engineer on concrete used in the works to check that the mixes
determined during the initial tests are continuing to satisfy the
requirements of the specification.
42 | P a g e

 The slump test on concrete shall be in accordance with BS 1881 and shall
be subject to the Engineer’s approval according to the results for the trial
mixes with reference to the grade of concrete and the purpose for which
it may be used.
 The tests shall be carried out in pairs and the average values computed.
9.12.6.3. Standard of Acceptance of Works Cubes
 Compression test shall be carried out on 150mm cubes all as stated earlier

the delivery vehicles.
 Compliance with the specified strength of each class of concrete may be
assumed if the Engineer is satisfied that:
A. The average strength determined from any group of four consecutive

test cubes exceeds the specified cube strength by not less than 7.5
N/mm2 if it can be established that the standard deviation of cube
test on at least 40 separate batches of concrete of nominally similar
proportions of similar materials and produced by the same plant under
similar supervision is not greater than 3 N/mm2; and
B. Each individual test result is greater than 85% of the specified cube
strength.
 If only one cube results fail to meet the second requirement then that
result may be considered to represent only the particular batch of
concrete from which that cube was taken provided the average strength
of the group satisfies the first requirement. If the average strength of any
group of four consecutive test cubes fails to meet the first requirement
then all the concrete in all the batches represented in all such cubes,
including those not actually tested and those for which test results
exceed the specified cube strength, shall be deemed not to comply with
the strength requirements.

10. RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN
48 | P a g e

10.1. INTRODUCTION
A risk is an event or condition that, if it occurs, could have a positive or negative effect
on a project’s objectives. Risk Management is the process of identifying, assessing,
responding to, monitoring, and reporting risks. This Risk Management Plan defines how
risks associated with the project KERJA PEMBAIKAN CERUN MENGGUNAKAN KAEDAH
‘TIE BACK WALL’ DI LALUAN FT004 SEKSYEN 81.80, JALAN KULIM-BALIK-GRIK,
BALING, KEDAH will be identified, analyzed, and managed.
It outlines how risk management activities will be performed, recorded, and monitored
throughout the lifecycle of the project and provides templates and practices for
recording and prioritizing risks. The Risk Management Plan is created by the project
manager in the Planning Phase. The intended audience of this document is the project
team, project sponsor and management.
10.2. RISK MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE
10.2.1. Process
 The project manager working with the project team and project sponsors
will ensure that risks are actively identified, analyzed, and managed
throughout the life of the project. Risks will be identified as early as
possible in the project so as to minimize their impact. The steps for
accomplishing this are outlined in the following sections. The project
manager will serve as the Risk Manager for this project.
10.2.2. Risk Identification
 Risk identification will involve the project team, appropriate
stakeholders, and will include an evaluation of environmental factors,
organizational culture and the project management plan including the
project scope. Careful attention will be given to the project deliverables,
assumptions, constraints, WBS, cost/effort estimates, resource plan, and
other key project documents. A Risk Management Log will be generated
and updated as needed and will be updated as required.
10.2.3. Risk Analysis
 All risks identified will be assessed to identify the range of possible
project outcomes. Qualification will be used to determine which risks
are the top risks to pursue and respond to and which risks can be ignored.
10.2.4. Qualitative Risk Analysis
 The probability and impact of occurrence for each identified risk will be
assessed by the project manager, with input from the project team using
the following approach:
a) Probability
 High – Greater than <70%> probability of occurrence
 Medium – Between <30%> and <70%> probability of
occurrence
 Low – Below <30%> probability of occurrence
49 | P a g e

b) Impact
H  High – Risk that has the potential to greatly impact project
cost, project schedule or performance
M  Medium – Risk that has the potential to slightly impact
L project cost, project schedule or performance
Impact
 Low – Risk that has relatively little impact on cost,

L M H schedule or performance
 Risks that fall within the RED and YELLOW zones will have
Probability risk response planning which may include both risk
mitigation and a risk contingency plan.
10.2.5. Quantitative Risk Analysis
 Analysis of risk events that have been prioritized using the qualitative risk
analysis process and their affect on project activities will be estimated,
a numerical rating applied to each risk based on this analysis, and then
documented in this section of the risk management plan.
10.3. RISK RESPONSE PLANNING
 Each major risk (those falling in the Red & Yellow zones) will be assigned to a
project team member for monitoring purposes to ensure that the risk will not
“fall through the cracks”.
 For each major risk, one of the following approaches will be selected to address
it:
o Avoid – eliminate the threat by eliminating the cause
o Mitigate – Identify ways to reduce the probability or the impact of the
risk
o Accept – Nothing will be done
o Transfer – Make another party responsible for the risk (buy insurance,
outsourcing, etc.)
 For each risk that will be mitigated, the project team will identify ways to
prevent the risk from occurring or reduce its impact or probability of occurring.
This may include prototyping, adding tasks to the project schedule, adding
resources, etc.
 For each major risk that is to be mitigated or that is accepted, a course of action
will be outlined for the event that the risk does materialize in order to minimize
its impact.
 The level of risk on a project will be tracked, monitored and reported throughout
the project lifecycle.
 A “Top 10 Risk List” will be maintained by the project team and will be reported
as a component of the project status reporting process for this project.
 All project change requests will be analyzed for their possible impact to the
project risks.
 Management will be notified of important changes to risk status as a component
to the Executive Project Status Report.
