Overview Week 4





On 26th April 2010, I went for site visit at Kapar, Selangor. This is the previously visited site on 9th April 2010. The piling stage almost finishes and the preparation for the pile cap carried out. The problems occurred on this site is some of the piles were labelled by Y10 at the edge of the pile. Pile size is 200 mm x 200 mm and the steel bar used in it was Y12. Confusion occurred and the piling work stopped for moment. After the confirmation obtained that the steel bar used is Y12, then the piling works continued.

I was given company profile and all the information needed typed down. Then, I continued with the variation orders for the PK AGRO Project.

On 30th April 2010, I went again to the Toyota UMW site around 1.30pm for site meeting. This meeting mainly focused on the offset problem occurred in the piling stage. One of the piles is out from the position. As a solution, another pile needs to be piled opposite of the offset pile 450mm distance from the original centre of gravity (CG) to pull back the original centre of gravity (CG). If the centre of the gravity (CG) is not in the position, later it will create problem for the structure.
