ICI - FINAL PROJECT

ICI- Final Project

Introduction
Part A
In this first part, we are to plan a construction of a building which involves architect, landscape architect, engineer, contractor and quantity surveyor. With our assigned roles, we have to produce documents that a necessary in a real construction project.

Part B
In this last part, we are to 'create' a company in relation to the roles we are assigned to. While creating the company, we have to include the company profile, financial information, name card, letterhead, envelope and roles of our respective 'occupation'.

Reflection
Through this project, I have learnt about the roles of my occupation (quantity surveyor) in a building project. The QS does not only calculate the cost of the project, but technically handles the financial issues in a project like collecting payments from clients and distributing it to the companies involved. The QS also prepares tender documents and contract documents for the building project. Apart from that, I also learnt how all the professionals come together to play a part in a building project. To me that is very important so that I know where I stand in a project. Honestly, being a future QS, I am quite afraid I will be lousy that preparing the documents and calculating the costs. But I suppose most people gain experience from past projects and especially their mistakes.

ENBE- Final Project

ENBE
The Future City

Introduction
PART A
In this project, we are to come up with a future city- underground city, flying city, underwater city, floating city or enhanced city. We have to focus on how the city works. For instance, the zoning of the city, the layout, the utilities, the services and how it sustains it self. In order to do that, we have to do some research on ancient, present and future cities. By doing so, we have to come up with a video to promote our city, and a booklet report that shows our research.

Reflection
Through this project I have learnt a lot about cities and how they work. A city is not just made up of of heaps upon heaps of buildings but it also needs underground electrical wiring, piping, waste disposal and so on. I also realized that cities are not made overnight but modified throughout the years. Managing the construction of a city is near impossible without a good initial layout or plan. A layout of a city can very much affect the people living in the city. From the ancient cities, I've learnt how cities came about and I've learnt to appreciate the cities we have today. From the present cities, I've learnt about places in the world which I have never even heard of. From the future cities, I've learnt that the cities we have today can be further developed to build a better and brighter environment for people.

In terms of the project, at first I was skeptical on whether i could trust my group members to perform their tasks properly. But towards the end of the project, they all reassured me and tried their best to help out. I guess I've learnt to trust others to do their work and I've also learnt to manage my time better through this project.

PART B
For this part, in groups, we are to choose one of the members' city and make a model of it. It turns out my city was chosen.

After making the model, we have to come up with a presentation board.

'Capturing' PUBLIC SPACES

The objective of this exercise is to investigate public spaces. In order to do that, I have to do a bit of research about what are public spaces and its function, then plan the journey to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Afterwards, I would have to head down to KL to take photos and analyse the public spaces there and record my findings.

REFLECTION
At the end of this exercise, it was a fun experience to just wander around in KL, not to mention taking lots of pictures. We used the Light Rail Transit (LRT) to get to KLCC which was quite a rare opportunity for me. Other than that, I also made friends with my course mates which I didn't really hang out with. Overall, it is a very nice experience, just chilling at KL and taking the time to look at the public spaces and even the things I had never knew was there. This can really help me to prepare and anticipate what is coming in the construction field.

CREATIVE THINKING SKILLS

Idea Journal 4

Introduction

In this exercise, I am suppose to come up with 2 analogy, 2 metaphors, 2 personifications and 2 similes about my object (straw), and another one about anything else.

Reflection
To me, this exercise is a bit weird because we normally do this kind of stuff in english classes. But I guess there is no limit to creativity and imagination. I just brainstormed on analogy, metaphor, personification and simile concerning straws. Actually I am also supposed to find out what are these made of and its meaning. From this exercise, I've learnt to this creatively as well as critically.
