Self-Introduction…
My name is Yvonne Lai Yee Vun , currently studying year 2 ,semester 4 in Bachelor of Quantity Surveying.
I am from a little town in Sabah called Sandakan. I am interested in this course because I like to observe the buildings around me since young and I love mathematics. I was told that this course is related to both buildings and involved a lot of calculation, so I decided to take this course.
This course is getting tougher and tougher and now I am in semester 4, there will be a lot of challenges coming , so I have to study hard to fulfill my ambition as a Surveyor.
Objective…
- To understand the roles of quantity surveyor in every stage of contract, tendering methods and procedures, evaluation and reporting of tenders and contract choices.
- To appreciate the role of quantity surveying profession in public and private sectors.
- To understand and develop awareness of the provisions of the Standard Contract forms related to construction period, insurances, Liquidated and Ascertained Damages, performance bonds, retention sums and other clauses forming basis of contract.
learning outcomes…
Professional Practice 1 enable me to identify the qualifications required of a Quantity Surveyor, its professional Institution and Board and the duties of a Quantity Surveying. Other than that, this module gave me the opportunity to define and prepare progress payment, variation orders, final accounts on completion of the contract works and contract administration related to Prime Cost and Provisional sum. This module generally teaches me on the details of contract that is used in construction and the contractual relationship between client and contractor.
I wanted to acknowledge my lecturer, Sr.Chang Khong Thong, the same lecturer that taught me Measurement 4, who is really helpful and care for our needs. Besides, I can seek help from him when I m facing any difficulties , he will always have patience to teach us.
In conclusion, this module really provide the skills and knowledge that I need for my future career.
Lessons Learned…
This module will be graded in the form of coursework, final examination and portfolio submission. Coursework consists of two assignments. The first assignment will be a individual project where I will prepare a project proposal for procurement arrangement to a client. This individual assignment gives me the idea on how the method of procurement, tendering method and form of contracts actually works and to select the best method under certain requirements.
