Welcome
You just entering e-terminal.blogspot.com the cyber port for construction site personnel to share their knowledge on improving their construction management skill...
Practice of construction without considering safety factor or without endorsement by structural engineer...
The owner only ask for good finishes... they might not consider the strength of the structure.
Ever heard about the whole roof collapse?
Some example that i ever seen...
- Additional 1st floor slab , column, roof beam and roof... sitting on single storey low cost shop 'roof beam'...
- Intermediate lot Steel Structure bolted to neighbor '20 years OLD brick party wall'... not support by foundation/column from ground.
Is it cost saving or 'Anti SAFEty'... Both premises are open for public...who shuld be blame?
Why foreign workers work harder?
- challenging to get similar job in their country
- lower cost of living in their country
- we pay them higher compare with what they get at their hometown
ISO 9001:2000 is a good practice to be implemented to construction firm. This system will improve all their staff and workers to be more productive.
Information documentation will be more effective.
Cost saving can be transform to cheaper service charge to community and extra year end bonus for their staff and workers.
System formwork was the best alternative for contractor to reduce their cost. Also help client to get extra float to offer best price to attract their customer. Steel formwork was the best choices for contractor to save the world... minimize 'logging activity'.
Always ensure all Personal Protective Equipment provided and utilized.
Always reminding about safety and health and provide safety signage.
Managing resources, risk, cash
Always do it twice... 1st on paper and 2nd on the ground.
Prepare your Work Method Statement to avoid unacceptable works.
Get sample and shop drawing approved before installation on site.
