LAW63704 Introduction to Law

Published on 02:51 By Unknown

0 评论

Taught by Ms. Anita Shoba Magimay.

Learning outcome: Malaysia Legal System, Contract Law, Tort Law.

Why Introduction to Law? Quantity surveyor would need to consult and advise their client and reduce the risk of a tender of construction project.

I was really surprised that I learnt law. It was so cool. I have learnt how to answer a question and shows people a more well-understood but simple answer. "Be simple with quality content" is what I have comprehend. Sometimes we lost something because we are holding something more important, we seems like we received less but maybe the things is just what we need. I also learnt how to organize things more efficiently, my brain become more well-organized. I felt that I get a little bit smarter since this course started. I should do more revision on Law and brainstorming because cases are never the same and they are more complicated than what I have learn. I would not only need to practice what I have learnt but also consider other things like logistic of the cases. To let my brain be more thoughtful and well-rounded, I have a long way to go. By the way I really appreciate this lecture and Ms. Shoba, It changes my life.

BLD62003 Building Material

Published on 02:35 By Unknown

0 评论

Taught by Ms. Myzatul Aishah Kamarazrly.

Learning outcome: Concrete, metals, rubber, ceramic, paint, timber, stone, bricks and blocks, glass, plastic.

Why Building Material? Different building material have different properties and characteristic, quality and cost. I must distinguish between them to choose the best suitable building material in a project when I am a quantity surveyor.

Building Material Group Assignment: Building Material in Library Level 3

Assignment 1: Construction site report in The Andes condo
Combination of Measurement I, Construction Technology, Building Material.
I love this project so much because I was be able to practice my knowledge in the actual working environment.

Building materials are like our life. Table we used to do homework is made from timber, bowl we used to eat and drink is made from glass or ceramic or plastic, etc. I never thought I would need to know its properties and details,, and it become so useful and important to my life job. In overall, I like quantity surveying. I don't think I hate any lectures I have studied now but feeling strong that I will love it so much. I am getting more eager to learn than when I was in high school. I appreciate that Ms. Aishah taught us a lot because I can feel her passion which give me strength to learn more about building materials.

BLD60104 Construction Technology

Published on 02:11 By Unknown

0 评论

Taught by Ms. Azrina MD Yaakob.

Learning outcome: Site and temporary work, foundation, concrete framed building, roof, wall, windows and doors and staircase.

Why construction technology? Quantity surveyor should know the construction technology of the construction project which he estimate. If I didn't know, I won't be able what I am measuring when I do Measurement I.

Group Assignment: Construction Technology of Ikea
Ikea has a significant design in every corner of the world. We are lucky to pick it as our project topic and we learn a lot from actual environment in order to practice our knowledge.

Individual Assignment 1: Construction site report in The Andes condo
Combination of Measurement I, Construction Technology, Building Material.
I love this project so much because I was be able to practice my knowledge in the actual working environment.

I have been more curious and curious about construction nowadays. I never notice the construction project every time I pass it by. But now, I always try to figure out what they are doing, is that the thing that I learn from Ms. Azrina? If yes, I will feel a sense of accomplishment because I learn well and didn't just memorize it and practice. Information is not knowledge. Although I found a lot of useful information about construction from internet, I can't verify the reliability. But after compare with the lecture notes and asking questions from Ms. Azrina, I have more confidence to what I have learnt from her. I like construction technology and I feel a little bit sad because the lecture ends. I hope that I didn't miss out anything and for sure I should make more effort to keep revise it until the day I become quantity surveyor. Knowledge is an investment for future.

QSB60104 Measurement I

Published on 23:16 By Unknown

0 评论

Taught by Ms. Ang Fuey Lin.

Learning outcome: Measurement of girth, site clearance, strip foundation, pad footing, pile cap, column, beam, reinforcement bar(straight, bend, hook, link, stirrup, binder, anchorage, lapping...), mesh fabric reinforcement, floor slab, apron slab, + SMM 2

Why measurement? Measurement is so important for being a quantity surveying. We measure and estimate the cost of a project (mostly construction project), without this knowledge we can't do this job. We will continue Measurement 2 until 4 in the following semester. I am so excited about it and I will need to work very hard because I will probably forget Measurement if I didn't revise in the future.

Assignment 1: Construction site report in The Andes condo
Combination of Measurement I, Construction Technology, Building Material.
I love this project so much because I was be able to practice my knowledge in the actual working environment. Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

I like measurement. At first I thought it is easy as it just need to measure and calculate. Book-keeping and mathematics is my pros when I was in high school and I definitely will be a pro in quantity surveying. But it is not that easy as I thought. Analyze, estimate and manage should be practiced too. And so, I am happy and more eager to learn it because I believe it will helps my brain get smarter and smarter. I want to be an intelligent girl. Quantity surveying is my choice and I love it.
