 This day our OJT adviser or head of the institute we applied for OJT tour us in

our designated site areas to worked or observed (Figure 2). The construction already

started and we immediately saw workers working on different areas like construction of

roof beams forms (Figure 3).

On this day, as our adviser touring us to the site and asking some question

regarding about minimum sizes for plumbing pipes for example. Also question us about

rebars to be used in beam construction.

Giving us some information is Engr. De Guzman, our OJT adviser. He gave us

tips and knowledge about site construction and how to handle things in site. He also

explains some critical things to know about site construction. He also makes sure the site

engineer is following the plans strictly for safety purposes.

 In our third day, we saw workers constructing a rebar and assembling the rebar.

The laborer is assembling the rebars for some beams. Bending of required bars is being

conducted by steel man in the site (See Figure 8).

At the same time welding of truss is conducted. The laborer is welding the angle

bars to form trusses for the roof works. He has no PPE so there is a large hazard in the

situation (Figure 9).

WEEK 2

Day 5 (January 28, 2019)

Figure 10. Orientation Figure 11. Orientation

In the 6th day of the training, we go on a site visitation around CLSU. We visited

the famous CLSU Auditorium that is under renovation. As we go around the area, some

work we saw is the fixing of metal piping into PVC pipes. The plumbing pipelines of the

old auditorium approve to change. They use PVC pipes instead (Figure 10).

Another activity is the renovation of auditorium roofing. In construction of the

ceiling the laborers are working at heights so they put extra safety for themselves and a

lot of scaffoldings are necessary (Figure 11).

Day 6 (January 29, 2019)

Figure 12. Site Visitation Figure 13. Construction of Roof Beams

To continue our training on site, we moved to another site since it has just started.

Excavation is done by the laborer for foundation construction. The workers make sure

that the excavated earth must store away from the edge of the trench (Figure 12). The

laborer used steel cutting machine to cut the steel bars according to its required length

(Figure 13).

On this day, we began our training in our new site which is the Construction of

College of Engineering Workshop and Micro-hydro Laboratory. The project is also being

handled by the CLSU Inspectorate Team, the team that also handled us.

 Three of the inspectors visited the ongoing construction for some reports. They’ve

notice some errors in plans like the walls beside the tanks should be a pure concrete

mixture and not made of CHB (Figure 52). As the construction progresses, the delivery

of materials will be continued until the construction is finished (Figure 53). It is

important that the delivery of materials is continuous so that the project will have no

problems regarding in material shortage and causing the delay of the project.
