Estimating (QSB2314)

Puan Azrina Md Yaakob is the lecturer for this module and this is the 2nd time she is being our lecturer it is because she was our lecturer for Management Science subject in our last semester. In this module, we've learnt about the principle of estimating, project cost estimating, components of build-up rates, various method of estimating, and the works of sub-contracting. Not only that, we've learnt hoe to calculate the excavation work, concrete work, brickwork, roof construction and finishes, glazing, plastering and tiling, carpentry and joinery, painting works, and plumbing works. Now, i am able to identify, explain and distinguish the various terminology related to estimating, measurement and unit rates including the objectives and various components of estimating, measurement and unit rates at different stages of construction procurement. I am also able to estimate the unit rates by considering and evaluating other factors influencing the cost of the construction components and elements.

For the 1st group assignment, there are 2 task that's need to be done by us which the first task is that we are assigned to form a group of 4 to 5 students in a group to do a seminar of  certain question, as my group is the 4th group, so we are doing seminar for the question no. 4 as shown below:
