MEASUREMENT 5 (QSB 3115) by Mr Chee Wai Meng and Mr Ramar Subramaniam
Purpose of measurement 5
We actually learned the measurement of Cold Water, Sanitary Plumbing, Electrical Installation works, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering works and various civil engineering works. All these actually had not been taught by other university so the students will at the head and shoulders of other university student as they gained the principal basic knowledge of measuring these works which light up their future. When the employer came to know that Taylor's graduates know more measurement than others they will tend to hire Taylor's graduates as they already had the knowledge and employer would not have to keep on guide them on their work.
Module Schedule
Week 1 Introduction to the principles of MYCESMM
Measurement for cold and hot water plumbing using SMM2
Week 2 Measurement for sanitary plumbing and appliances using SMM 2
Week 3 Measurement for electrical installation works using SMM2
Week 4 Measurement for HVAC works using SMM2
Week 5 Measurement of telephone trunking and cabling works using SMM2
Week 6 Measurement for Fire protection works using SMM2
Week 7 Measurement for Soil Investigation using MYCESM
Measurement for Slope Stabilization works using MYCESMM
Week 8 Measurement for general earthworks , bulk excavation using
MYCESMM
Week 9 Measurement for deep basement excavation using MYCESMM
Week 10 Measurement for environmental protection, traffic management,
miscellaneous works using MYCESMM
Week 11 Measurement for tunnels using MYCESMM
Week 1 Measurement for railway tracks using MYCESMM
Week 13 Measurement of precast concrete works using MYCESMM
Week 14 Preparation of specification clauses for the various trades
Objectives
Learning Outcomes
To be able to understand the items measurable for cold water and sanitary plumbing , electrical installation and mechanical and electrical works and civil engineering works. Besides, also learned the way to distinguish and illustrate differences in writing up descriptions according to variables of designs of cold water and sanitary plumbing , electrical installation and mechanical and electrical works and civil engineering works. Next, also knew the method to evaluate the relationship between specifications, drawings and bill of quantities in tender documents for cold water and sanitary plumbing , electrical installation and mechanical and electrical works and civil engineering works. Furthermore, also learned the way to measure various element such as cold water and sanitary plumbing , electrical installation and mechanical and electrical works and civil engineering works based on Standard Method of Measurement (SMM2) and Malaysian Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement ( MYCESMM ). Thus, the students learned a new thing which the way to read MYCESMM which is a engineering standard of measurement. Last but not least, will also develop a conceptual understanding of and the ability to competently undergo the preparation of the bills of quantities for cold water and sanitary plumbing , electrical installation and mechanical and electrical works and civil engineering works .
Course work 1
Course work 1 consist of a mid term test which contributed a total mark of 25% to the overall assessment which was conducted at week 7. This test enable the students to know how far they had progress. Besides, they will master the topics that the lecturer has taught. After they have measurement subject test, they will be able to do taking off more efficiently and effectively. They would not forget the topics that they have studied and will understand more on the particular topics they had been tested.

Course work 2
Course work 2 comprises of a group assignment which contributed a total mark of 25% of the overall assessment and students need to submit it on the week 8. This group assignment was designed for 5 students per group and the students was required to measure electrical works based on the information given in the assignment brief. This group assignment expose the students to the actual field and student will gain some basic knowledge on the measurement of electrical works. Besides, the students will also came to know the items that can be measured for electrical installation works. Upon completion of the group assignment, author will be able to understand and uses the clauses in SMM2 for the various trades related to electrical works. Furthermore, the students will learned to plan systematically in order to start off their assignments and they will be able to visualize the drawing and details given in the brief. This will make them have a clearer figure of what electrical work is when they are out in the field next time. Apart from that, they will be able to relate the specifications, drawing and bills of quantities. They will also know the correct method to measure electrical works and produce bills of quantities for electrical works according to SMM2. Last but not least, they will also be able to understand and carry out the preparation of bills of quantities for electrical installation works.
