Week Three: Monday, 19th of April, 2010 (CONSTRUCTION WEEK )

I started the construction stage by joining the construction unit. The unit consideration is supervising the civil works of TNB. The unit members have to make sure that the work done by contractor is going correctly and in schedule. It involves daily ecording and daily site visiting.
Mr. Fadzli has asked me to join him to the site Laluan BR2, Persiaran Utara, PutraJaya to have a close view of the construction works. I joined him for the whole week and I learned a lot of things during the works processes.
The project involves the following:
1. Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), which was taking under the bridge located at the site.
2. Excavation at the ducting path
3. Installing the PVC pipes and connects them between the located manholes to the PN pipes.
4. Constructing the ducting framework
5. Concreting the ducts path.
6. Taking off the framework
7. Back filling.
8. Compaction.

Today’s work involved pipes connection checking and preparing final works before concreting.
