QUOTE(mohdyakup @ Jun 5 2015, 10:26 AM) Hello. prokon, fireguard. (this 2 is the company name) not sure if experience in O&G. residential service yes, no doubt.I am still new in the Downstream O&G petrochemicals project and I believe the basic construction principle are the same with common civil construction out there. All this while I am dealing with Upstream offshore fabrication & construction so please bear with me. Can anyone suggest to me any reliable local contractor/vendor who have experience in providing Type-II light concrete fireproofing material (fire retardant cementitious coatings). Preferred brand is either Promat, Sherwin Williams or Interkote. Looking for contractor who have experience in downstream O&G projects (petrochemicals, LNG, Oil Refinery etc). PM me for details. |

QUOTE(n8210 @ Jul 13 2015, 11:24 AM) that's what we called "Industrialized Building System". yeah, I believe so also. but at the moment, the cost would be expensive if to adopt IBS completely.eg. cast in-situ concrete is cheaper than precast concrete or steel structure eg. brickwall is cheaper than drywall and also durable than drywall. |

QUOTE(bereev @ May 29 2015, 07:58 AM) i see most hosing build also no lintel like the photo, unless it was wider size door they will put a cast concrete before bricks work. correct procedure is u need to have lintel. but if the brick just 2 layer, it's not heavy enough so some contractor just ignore it or "tao gong gum liu" |

QUOTE(bereev @ May 29 2015, 08:08 AM) suppose is like what u say, but today Maincon is the pay master, all the pic of project is money oriented businessman not engineer, when come technical problem, design or specification they will push all responsibility to their hire Consultant, when things about works always push the the subcon and supplier to delivery fast squezze subcon on money matter, Maincon magic words is "Settle the issue before the next Claim paid" client / developer is the main pay master. nowadays main contractor getting more challenging. as a lot of contract is lump sum contract. reason of being lumpsum because the client wanna lock the price for build a building. once accepted the contract, all the ball throw to main contractor. any issue incurred (not because of design changes) would be solely main contractor responsibility. it's common nowadays main contractor losing money in building for developer.in Maincon u learn how to do business but not engineering or technical things. it's a chain, when main contractor incurred losses, he receive no enough money from developer and therefore start to squeeze subcon to minimize his losses. soon subcon apply this to supplier. the "final" product become defective because of this. delay and poor quality. seen this cycle many times already |

QUOTE(terminatorkun @ May 24 2015, 10:45 AM) ok... normally how long it takes to get CF ? depend 1. complete the roadwork and get authority to inspect then done lo. they need local authority (in KL is DBKL) to give clearance letter prior issue CCC by Architect. (CCC is the CF u mean, nowadays practice CCC instead of CF - Certificate of Completion Compliance)based on schedule my home complete on 2017 but recently i visit site, they already paint the house. surrounding area like road still not finish. |

QUOTE(birdman8 @ Apr 24 2015, 04:19 PM) hello, "songlap"why the malaysian road got some many potholes if compare to other third world countries such as vietnam or indonesia ? is it fair to say it is due to the quality of the construction material or method used to save costs? sad but true. Architect specify a good spec. but because of contractor propose cheaper alternative and can give some $$ as favour to architect, they approve it. happen on both private and public project. |

IBS has been introduced and grants etc given... but it seems we are still making baby steps. Majority of it in my own opinion, big companies are too busy making money and not researching, inventing, etc... or supporting IBS. If not them, who else has the hundreds, thousand units of houses to build in an area, allowing the possibility of either precast or in situ.eg. cast in-situ concrete is cheaper than precast concrete or steel structure eg. brickwall is cheaper than drywall and also durable than drywall. But out of the many housing plans, mostly NOT IBS. |
