CHAPTER 2

Weekly Progress Report

Gworks Construction

May 14, 2014

I went to the Gworks office to meet with Arch.

Guidaben, the proprietor, he drove me to the site at Brgy.

Tiptip to meet Engr. Willie Murica who will give me the

tasks I will have to do for the project I will supervise. When

I arrived, the clearing already started and the layout was

about to begin for a 2-storey apartment owned by Director

Maryo J. Delos Reyes.

I was only introduced to the site and we discussed

about the SOP’s for my OJT program, I left before lunch

because I had to attend my summer class in the afternoon.

May 15, 2014

The staking was already finished when I arrived to

the site. It was time to layout the columns so I measured the

distance for each columns with a help of a worker. We

measured by following the plan and marking it with a stick.

(Figure 1)

May 20, 2014

I was tasked to rewrite the DTR of the workers and

the bill of materials for another project at the City Hall. The

excavation for the footings already started and the workers

started bending stirrups and tie wires. (Figure 2)

May 21, 2014

Went out to the People’s Lumber office

to follow up the orders for the project at Tiptip.

Afterwards, I reported to the Gworks office to

encode the purchased items and estimates.

Arch. showed me a sample of a structural

analysis made by Engr. Lupot for a 2-storey

building.

May 22, 2015

I was called out to the site to join them

for the Padugo, a traditional event in

construction where footings are dropped with a

blood of a slaughtered Visayan chicken before

it is poured with concrete for a lasting and strong structure. A fellowship between workers and

employers are done afterwards. (Figure 3 and 4)

May 24, 2014

Took a duty on the office to encode all purchased items of the

project and the bill of materials for the project at the City Hall.

May 27, 2014

I assisted on the construction site after checking their attendance.

I found out that there was an error on the installation of steel materials for

the columns. (Figure 6) 1 column was supposed to be used with 12mm

dia. Rebar but instead 16 mm dia. was used, however, Engr. Said to leave

it as it is and just assure no 16mm dia. Column must be replaced with

12mm dia. (Figure 5) Because it can affect the integrity of the structure.

I also took an inventory of the newly delivered 250 pcs. Of CHB.

May 28, 2014

When I arrived on the site, there was already an on-

going installation of wall partitions and the excavation for the

footing was already finished. I was tasked to settle the

payables on the materials delivered and ask a refund from

Engr. Willie. (Figure 7)

Figure 5 Steel Reinforcements

June 3, 2014

I was asked to make an estimate for the total area of

the ceiling for the project at the City Hall. Afterwards, I

encoded it to the Gworks office and finalized the payables for

the project at Tiptip. (Figure 8 and 9)

June 4, 2014

Checked the DTR of the workers at the site and gave

their salaries. Afterwards, I went to the office to finalize the

payables for the materials delivered at the site.

June 5, 2014

I checked the attendance of the workers at the site and

made an estimate of glasswork for the project at the City Hall.

(Figure 10)

June 6, 2014

Encoded the estimates for the City Hall project at the

office.

June 7, 2014

Distributed the honorariums of the workers at the site after checking their attendance. Made

an estimate on the municipal hall of Calape and encoded the payables at the office. In the afternoon,

I went to the site to have a meeting with Director Maryo J. Delos Reyes for some revisions and

updates on the ongoing project. (Figure 11)

Yayo Builders Inc.

April 28, 2015

My first day as an ojt of Yayo

builders started at 1:00 in the afternoon. I

was asked to visit the site at Lila (Figure

12) where I will have to compute the tiled

area of a 1-story residential house

installed by the company’s tile setters. I

was told that the company was only a sub-

contractor since they have good tile setters

in the province. My companion

throughout the day was Kuya Baloy, the

company driver, using the elf as service.

On the way to the site, we first

dropped by YY home builders to buy

painting materials for another project in

Songculan, Dauis (Figure 13). We dropped it off to the site before heading to Lila.

We arrived around 3:30pm in the site. I started measuring the area with the help of a builder

(Figure 14), he measured the sides I said to be measured while I took down a sketch to jot the

measurements. There were rooms that were already installed by another contractor so we just

measured the parts installed only by YAYO (Figure 15). We started from the rooms inside up to

the stairs outside. I finished measuring around 4:30pm, enough time to hit the road home. I finished

the draft at home to present the data the next day.

April 29, 2015

I presented the data to Engr.

Macol in the afternoon, he checked

and told me to re-compute the area

excluding the stairs because the

stairs must be computed in linear

meter together with the nosing. The

computations were used to know the

amount to be paid by the client.

After computing, he gave me

the bill of materials for the

residential project in Tamblot, I was asked to make a bar chart and s-curve

of it using the items given in the bill of materials (Figure 16 & 17). Unfortunately, all computers,

were dysfunctional because of the virus so I had to do the task manually.

April 30, 2015

I continued doing the bar chart, I had a hard time making it since I had not much idea on

how to estimate the actual no. of days since I’m a starter in the field of actual construction.

However, I tried asking Engr. Ben but he was quite busy so I had to ask some people in the office

who know. Unfortunately, not all had the idea so I had to seek an outside source from my

professors and co-Engineering friends.

May 4, 2015

I was asked to go to BOHECO office and inquire the requested quotation for the project in

Songculan.

I also continued doing the Bar chart.

May 5, 2015

We went to the on-going project at Tamblot

today together with the architect, secretary and

company driver to observe their work and give the

salary (Figure 19). They were currently pouring

concrete on the 2nd floor slab and beams manually

(Figure 18, 20 & 21). It was supposed to be via pump

Crete but unfortunately, the truck cannot fit inside the

site because of the narrow gate which is 10 meters away

from the house.

We ate dinner there together with the workers

and went home around 7pm.

May 6, 2015

Continued doing the S-curve and was asked to

deposit money at FCB (First Consolidated Bank)

May 7, 2015

I was asked to buy a pack of 3/8” washer at

Builderware and a male plumbing connector at

Handyman. The materials were intended for the water

heater installation on the project at Songculan.

May 8, 2015

I was asked to buy epoxy A&B and a gallon of thinner at Citi Hardware, a white quick dry

enamel at Cogon Hardware, and fishing net and nylon at Policarpo fishing store.

I have found an error on the computation of the bill of materials for the project at Tamblot,

it was on the total materials under the Concrete works and CHB installation. I was asked to apply

the corrections on the S-curve so I had to recreate another chart manually.

At around 3pm, the architect told me to go to the BOHECO office to ask for a re-

computation on the quotation requested because the client wants another transformer to be installed

near his lot for the electric post existing is too far from his property. It is also critical not to have

an additional electric post because there is another building to be constructed near the existing

electric post.

May 12, 2015

I went out to inquire internet services at BCCTv and PLDT for the office. On the way, I

also took a follow-up on the updated quotation at BOHECO office. I had to go overtime because

there is a general cleaning at the office.

CHAPTER 3

Assessment of OJT Program

1. What have I learned from the experience?

What I’ve learned in this OJT program is how to estimate properly all the materials. It can

be done in lump sum or itemized. All expenses should be noted and all delivered items should be

double checked.

I also gained an idea on how to efficiently make a manpower schedule. Another is knowing

the purpose of a contingency cost, in case there is an unavailability of the equipment and more

manpower is needed to finish the job. The purpose of the s-curve and bar chart was also realized,

this is frequently used for monitoring and goal-setting of the company to avoid mismanagement

and to track down how much is the cost to be released on a working day.

2. My experiences with people around me?

I have experienced to be around people of different personalities. I have realized that

efficient communication is needed to make your employees work efficiently and make your project

successful. It must be remembered to give them just compensation for their hard work.

3. The most memorable event during my OJT

I would never forget the Padugo activity where footings are dropped with a blood of a

slaughtered Visayan chicken before it is poured with concrete, it is believed to make a lasting and

strong structure. It is also another way to get along with the workers of the project because of the

fellowship after the traditional activity.

4. Recommendations

None

5. Advice to those who will take the OJT program

It is much better to try to work in at least 2 different employers in construction to expand

your knowledge in project management and know their different techniques and strategies.
