Why we choose the company

 From our past exposure during our three academic years, we had a significant number of site
visit and exposure to different building site at different stage of construction, but this
exposures were specific target based, so we have a big passion to participate in integrated
site.
 As we heard from our lectures we have known that Bamacon engineering is one of the
big contractor in our city (having around 60 sites) including mega projects, because of
the above reasons we had chosen Bamacon engineering plc.
 Our goal in the internship period is to gain the basic managerial activities & work
methodology in continuous manner in a building construction site from the beginning of the
project.
 In order to do that we started to look for construction site which are at beginning, in doing
so we had chosen Bole Japan was better according to our criteria.
 Then we have accepted by the company by October 08/10/2018 and we had completed the
agreement among Bamacon head office around wello sefer, EIABC and Nile source site.
Pre-construction stage
 The contractor is provided with this project throw selective bidding approach the client
chooses a few construction companies which he is confident with the performance for this
project then select the one who come up with least cost.
 Then after the client on his behave nominate the architect as a Consultant (with full
responsibility in architectural as well as structural design) so the three parties are
agreed.

Executed Activities
 Referring types of project plans based on Phase of Construction Project

i. Inception stage:-Project feasibility plan
 The Client gets the idea and decides to build the head office, then the team examines the
needs and finally defines the scope of the work and assesses the time and cost.
 Which we believe this is the basic reason for the stake holders to be where they are right
at this moment.
ii. Engineering Stage:-Project preliminary plan
 Prepared completion time, project design and drawings, breakdown of the project in to
contract, tender preparation, tender finalization period, and the contracted works
commencement and completion dates….
iii. Implementation Stage: Project construction plan
 This stage needs planning the time, resource and the controlling activity.
 This is what is being done by the contractor and what we were trying to investigate.
General status on the implementation stage

Temporary retaining structures (shoring).
First they excavate for the piles up to we find a good bed for the shoring.
Then insert the reinforcement inside the holes and fill it with concrete.
The piles is spaced 1.2 m spacing.
It is anchored by tensioning a coiled wire for each 1.5m depth.
The slope of anchoring decrease as we go deep because the amount of soil to retain is also
decreasing.
they excavate each 1.5m and anchor it up to the bed.
There is a grouting process which is used to anchor the coiled wire with the retained
structure.
Then after mesh the space between the piles with diameter 8 bar and spray it with a light
weights concrete.
Footing pad works
 They have used both combined and isolated footings based on structural design.
 They have used pad foundation because according to the geological survey of the soil the soil
is taken to resist the load of structure with this kind of foundation.
The site condition when we arrived
Site layout
Abstracts
▪ As there is a shortage of land our sites lay out can be taken as effective because of the
following reasons;
 One it have all necessary site formalities like site visit area toilet.
 And also they are placed on a proper place e.g. the site visit area is located at the center
to watch the whole construction is looked, also the toilet is located @ one corner of the
site.
 The site office is also near to the site.
 The other good thing is the consulting office is found in front of the site which is very
best for inspection
▪ Some problems
 There is a shortage of transportation down to the basement both for materials and
workers.
 The temporary ladder shown in the above layout is very dangerous to use it because it is
very weak.
 The other problem is that when concrete is arrived the temporary ladder is also used as
a ramp for the concrete to slide down which is impossible to use the ladder @ that time.
Logistic management of the site

Material request issues
o There are a number of recite types which are used for different purposes.
These are:
 MR material request: to ask the head office/ administration for materials to be
bought.
 Inter store material: to ask and bring materials from head office main store to site
store.
 Good receiving voucher: for material receiving.
 According to our site the material is supplied by the client ,so the material requited to reach
the site it should pass the following;-
 First the material request form should be filled by the site engineer and signed by the
project manager (pm) then it is approved by the client engineer then the suppliers
deliver the material to the site according to the requests.
Site engineer project manager client engineer
▪ Then after it arrived to the site it will placed in site store or used immediately on the site
▪ The safety materials are also exists in site store, every work man have his own hail mats
and reflector jackets.

October monthly report
Week 1 (oct 15-19/18)
Week day Activity
Monday On this day we did the following activities:-
Oct 15 2018  Cart away of soil from the site by daily laborer which is very costly & time taking
method due to the reason that the presence of electric line to access cranes
 Compaction of the previously prepared site
Tuesday On this day we did the following activities:-
oct 16 2018  Cart away of soil from the site continued
 Selected fill and compaction of ground for the construction of ditch
Wednesday On this day we did the following activities:-
 Leveling for ditch was done with C-15 lean concrete
 Compaction for G-beam alignment
Thursday On this day we did the following activities:-
 Reinforcement for ditch was done
Friday On this day we did the following activities:-
 Leveling of floor drain with a slope of 5% with a leveling instrument
Abstract 1
 When we enter the site at the first time the workers are busy by transporting cart away.
The cart away was transported manually by the daily laborer with the smaller lifts which
have very low productivity.
 Recommendations from us:-
1, why didn’t uses movable crane to transport/remove the cart away from the site? Their
response is there is an obstacle municipal Electric line due to this reason they choose the
manual transportation.
We asked that why they don’t install the electric line underground unless it causes other
problems.
2, the second way is giving the cart away for a group of works other than daily laborers of the
site as a contract by fixing time of completion so it worked it facilitate other works to be done.
The ditch construction
 Our building water drain and water from shoring is captured through open ditch then collect
it to septic tank and then pumped out to municipal line.
 Construction methodology
▪ The slope of the ditch is 5%, to make practical compaction of selected fill by using Rammer
and vibratory plate in 1m horizontal length and drop in 5cm we get 5% slope after
this they lean 5cm C-15 lean concrete then 10cm thick ditch slab reinforcement casting with
a diameter of 8mm, 10mm & 12mm, from this we learned how to implement the drawing in
to practical.
▪ Manhole /septic tank constructed to hold the drainage and ditch which have a pump.
▪ There is a place, no space to place the ditch, we have placed pipe Ø20mm with 135° elbow
and this pipe transfer water from one part of ditch to the other.
Rammer vibratory plate reinforcement for ditch finished ditch

 Pouring of C-35 concrete for retaining wall according to the design
 Lift formwork was done with a great care to keep its corner straight
Abstract 2
Form work for beam
 Our site is different from other one is by beam form work.
 First the design is to cast solid/ flat slab and to cast slab and beam ones to prevent uplift water and
because there is a DPM below the grade beam.
 Therefore We should have to use non removable form work
Available materials:-ply wood, panel, rock stone, and block
Ply wood and panels:-gives required shape sharpness and are not time taking in construction but not
economical
Rock stone:-economical than the ply wood & panels but less productive and not give sharp & flat face.
Block:-it is economical and gives the required face i.e. sharp, flat and appropriate to install DPM without
any damage. “Block” is better than “rock stone” and the best from ply wood & panel then they choose
block as form work by the negotiation of professionals.
Construction methodology
 First we compact the selected material 60cm below floor finish level with 20-30cm layer of
compaction using rammer and vibratory plate, then lean 5cm c-15 lean concrete with a width of
68cm on axis after this we placed 20*20*40 cm block with 2.5cm mortar bed by offset 14cm from
the center of the axis both sides after this we placed mortar on the 20*20*40cm block and place
20*10*40cm, we get a width of 28cm & 35 cm deep.
center of the beam axis lean concrete for the block formwork
block formwork construction
Floor drain pipe installation

▪ During installation of floor drain pipes for capture moistures and drains from the floor of the 3 rd
basement and store in 1.5m deep drainage manhole.
During installation
▪ We have used Ø110mm U PVC first we had made the slope of the pipe which is specified in the
drawing is 5% slope so the Forman ticked the top level of the pipe on the column reinforcement bar
then he changed the 5% slope in to easy & applicable way of installation which is 1m horizontal &
5cm deep by this calculation they start to make slope by using sand bed then we get 5% slope and
install the pipe on the sand one piece of pipe cover 6m and connect the no_ of pipes using elbows,
T, 180° and 270°.
o T:-used when there is need of connecting two pipes and there is a vertical flow floor drainage pipe
to catch the water from the floor to the horizontal pipes.
o 180°:-used to connect two series pipes
o 270°:-used to bend the pipes to other directions
o Y-branch:-used to collect water drainage from two directions
Pipe elbow joint methods

 There are key things we have to consider the pipe should have thin rubber called `Gomini` they
sometimes use grease to make the joint workable.
 Rubbing the pipes to sharpen its edge of connection when we connect pipes the acceptor should be
the outer of the former pipe to avoid the linkage, finally to avoid the filling of construction materials
in the vertical drain pipes we should cover it with empty cement bags to check the slope and linkage
test by adding water to the pipe.

Using fire to melt the pipe closing the pipe

process
Hardcore construction
 Hardcore is filled after the beam form work is constructed it is used qualified stone from the quarry
site up to 30cm thick but did not use the stone gained from the site when they are digging because
of this stone is not strong and suitable since it gets from consolidation of the soil & it loses their
strength.
Its purpose;-
 As it is filled in random manner no stone will be vertical up so the ground water flow down
by the sloped placed stone.
 To fill the beam area up to slab to avoid direct contact slab and soil.
 To support the ground slab
 First fill the larger size of stone and then the top of the stone greater than 30cm was crashed by
using hammer and fill large holes to level & save the concrete usage.
Lean concrete work above hardcore

The hard core size is 30cm so it drops 5cm from height of the block formwork so we fill the 5cm c-15
lean concrete which is not structural used to strengthen the hardcore and to give flat surface to install
DPM and slab.
▪ The lean concrete work is done by using a wooden purlin 5*3 cm “riga”
Week 3 (oct 29-nov 2)

Week day Activity

Thursday We can observed that the following activities:-
Nov 01 2018  Ditch reinforcement with different diameter bars
 DPM/ membrane laying for vertical shear wall by painting primer firstly.
 Block formwork construction for G- beam was continued
 Filling of hardcore for ground/ 3B floor which originates from the quarry

Friday We can observed that the following activities:-
Nov 02 2017  DPM/ membrane laying for vertical shear wall by painting primer firstly was
continued
 Filling of hardcore for ground/ 3B floor was continued
 Cart away from the site by a daily laborer
 Lift formwork was done with a great care to keep its corner straight
Abstract 3
▪ We have constructed retaining walls instead of pile shoring about 8m high and 40 m long
 To be economical
 This portion of the site have no existing building and also
 The soil is good when we compare the other side of the site.
Form work for retaining wall
We have used two types of formwork:-Panel and ply wood

▪ The panel is used for the building side of the wall because it is re-usable so it should be on the face
which is easy to demolish with the piece size is 75cm width & 2m long.
▪ The ply wood is used to the face of the soil it is non-re-usable because it is impossible to demolish
due to the absence of space to demolish so it is fixed and it is used before.
▪ Any play wood formwork cannot be used more than 3 times so we use panel formwork it is more
advantageous although it has high initial cost but it serve for a longer time than plywood.
Scaffolding
 In our site we used two types of scaffolding wooden at the side of the soil to demolish use
hammering & as there is a soil there is no need to use tubular metal crusty.
 Tubular metal crusty is very safe and long life because they don’t affect by moisture both diagonal &
vertical bracing.
Vertical, horizontal and diagonal bracings plywood formwork
Panel formwork
temporary area for concrete casting of retaining wall
Pouring of concrete for retaining wall
 C-35 Concrete is poured with a ready mix concrete from batching plant .
 They use retarder admixture to increase setting time of concrete, to give as time for vibrating
Ready mix concrete
 We have no enough space to place the mixer on site
 To attain better quality and strength plant is better than mixer
 To get maximum quality of pouring at a time
 To get the correct grade of concrete as it is tasted before.
 To minimize the wastage of concrete during mixing
 To keep the proportion of cement, sand, aggregate & water ratio
Way of testing concrete

A. The pre sampling
 Sample is taken before it comes to our site from the plant.
B. At a time of casting by client side
 Critical time to test concrete when there is change of ingredient in the batching plant
Sample taking at site for compressive strength test

Problems
 Late delivery of concrete
 Sometimes the concrete is very workable (more water) which causes;
 Decrease strength of concrete
 Segregation and flowing through joint of formwork
Casting methodology
o After the mixer truck is arrived it connect its outlet with temporary ramp for concrete and the
concrete slides through them and placed on site then using wheel barrows poured in the formwork
after this vibrate by a vibrator to avoid segregation.
o Epoxy is a construction chemical used to avoid creeps among the vibration of casting.
Route case analysis
 In our site there was retardation of tasks and the site was running below the schedule
because independent activities were not under execution because of the following root
cases;-
 The case of the project to be slowed down.
 Unnecessary materials on site shortage of masons cause mal use of masons.
 Shortage of daily laborers cause mal use of labors.
 Poor method of removing cart away shortage of parallel working tasks.
 Shortage of bar bender and workers.
 There is no way of evaluating the worker’s productivity.
 There is lack of communication between contractor side & consulting side workers.
 There is no motivation of workers.
 After the above problems are fixed the site was begin to go fast so, we guarantee that root case
analyses is very best way of solving problems.

Abstract 1
 One of the special thing in our site is works like reinforcement works, formworks and DPM
works are given to sub-contractors
 ADVANTAGES
▪ High quality of work can be gotten because the task is done with specific professionals.
▪ Saves time to finish the task because that sub-contractor is only responsible for his task
only so he can finish with in a short time.
 Disadvantages we have seen behind.
▪ The workers of the sub-contractor receives command from contractor sides, consultant
side and the sub-contractor sides, this causes demotivation’s in workers.
 Solution
▪ The solution for this problem is formulating chain of command between contractors,
consultant and sub-contractors.
▪ If the consultant fined a problems then he should inform to the contractor then contractor
to sub-contractor.
Formwork for the lift
 The formwork is supplied by the client by his willing for quality play wood 2.2*4.4 2cm
thick with high quality.
Construction methodology.
 First we make the internal formwork by placing 3*5 purlin (crachery) to maintain its
squadra because lift is a very sensitive place.
 After the inspection of squadra of the purlin and also diagonally, then
 Fix the plywood on the crachery .the connection between play woods is done RHS
vertically, which is to avoid bursting of the formwork during concrete pouring.
Crachery for the lift panel wok for the lift
Formwork for the shear wall around the lift
 The formwork is purchased by the client because it is non reusable because it stays there this
is the result of lack of space for plating DPM on the wall.
 Therefore we plate the DPM on the play wood then reinforcement of shear wall then after
the building side formwork will be constructed.
Week 2 (Nov 12-16)

Week day Activity
Nov 12 2018  Laying of DPM/ membrane for beam & slab was done

damage
Abstract 5
DPM works
o In our site there are 3 means of membranes.
1, DPM for both beam and shear wall
2, DPM for slab (sand DPM) 3, protection boards

1, DPM for both beam and shear wall
 Is 4mm thick bituminized membrane.

 Size 1m * 10m very elastic.
 Used For water proofing, it needs protection boards.
2, DPM for slab (sand DPM)
 Differ from the above by, it doesn’t need protection board because its outer surface is hard
enough. As they told to us it is used as a floor finish for flat roof (terrace).
3, protection boards
 It is differ by ,it is harder and used for protecting the iner DPM.
Construction mechanisms of DPM
There are two types of water proofing
A, positive side water proofing.
B, negative side water proofing
A, positive side water proofing.
 Is a water proofing system that the DPM is plated on the side that the water comes before
entering to the structure.
B, negative side water proofing
 It is protecting the moisture after entering to the structure, most of the time used for repair,
mostly done by DPC (paint) because it will react with the structure so protect dampness
greater than DPM.
Construction methodology in our site
o First we paint primer on the structure, to avoid dusts and To make the structure open to
be plated.
o Then the membrane is burned by 6000c acetylene flame.
o Plate on the structure, And for slab DPM there is 10cm overlapping length on the sand
side.
Our questions and their responses.
 When we are at class, we learnt that when we bend a DPM it should not be 90 0 to protect
the DPM from cut so we should use 450cant strip (wooden or other materials).But in our
site there is 900 bending of a membrane for beams why this happens? The response is;
▪ The DPM in our site is the new one, which have f.f properties;-
 200gm of pollster (mesh) exists in between layers which gives elastic properties not
to be cut, although it is bended, but the older one is only bituminized which is
easily damaged.
How to check proper execution of DPM work
 Hammer the plated membrane by our hand and if it have a sound that means there is an air
space inside so it was not properly work.
 Watching the face of the membrane if it became melt or thinner then it means it is over
flamed.
Cylinder inspection
 In standard 12kg cylinder acetylene should be used for only 7 members.
 So by calculation we can know whether the DPM IS;-
Over flamed: - makes the membrane thinner.
Under flamed: - creates sudden detachment of the membrane form the structure.

Abstract 6
Lean concrete above the DPM of slab.

 There is a lean concrete of C-15 above the DPM to protect the DPM from slab reinforcement
but spacers are enough for this purpose.
Lean concrete above DPM
Reinforcement for beams
 The most things that took our attention is the place of overlap between bars;-
Top bars of beams
 In our site top bars of beams overlaps at the center of the beam, which is correct because
top bars have zero tension at the middle .so it is beast place for bar overlapping.
Bottom bars
 The bottom bars overlapped at 1/3 of the effective span of the beam because it is area of
minimum tension.
Overlap length (cm) =4*diameter of bar (mm)
Grade beam reinforcement
Week 7 (Nov 26-30)

 2.5 cm spacer placing for the slab.
Abstract 6
 In this weak the attracting thing is the slab reinforcement.

the 3rd basmnt slab has two typs of bars ;-
a) Mesh
▪ This is used for avoid the cracking, temperature effect, shrinkage and creep.
b) Negative bars
▪ There are 1m negative bars in our sites which are used for avoiding length effect and
moisture effect.

III. About pile shoring
IV. Obligation of stakeholders related to payment, contract agreements and contract
bridge.
V. How to do root case analysis
VI. How to use leveling instrument in different kinds of measurements.
Problems we faced as Internship

student
▪ The company has no schedule for internship students and as I have seen so far the engineers
on the site don’t give enough attention to us this might be due to lack of experience with
internship students and also experience with uninterested inters.
Solution we took
▪ As a solution what I have done so far is that I will be around them when they discuss and I
will ask to do what is going to be done by our self or help in the process. They don’t give their
task to let us try but we usually asked for it. And it worked well.

 This portion of the site have no existing building and also

Form work for retaining wall

We have used two types of formwork:-Panel and ply wood

Vertical, horizontal and diagonal bracings plywood formwork

Ready mix concrete

 We have no enough space to place the mixer on site

 To attain better quality and strength plant is better than mixer

 To get maximum quality of pouring at a time

 To get the correct grade of concrete as it is tasted before.

 To minimize the wastage of concrete during mixing

 To keep the proportion of cement, sand, aggregate & water ratio

Way of testing concrete

Sample taking at site for compressive strength test

 Sometimes the concrete is very workable (more water) which causes;

 Decrease strength of concrete

 Segregation and flowing through joint of formwork

Route case analysis

 The case of the project to be slowed down.

 Unnecessary materials on site shortage of masons cause mal use of masons.

 Shortage of daily laborers cause mal use of labors.

 Poor method of removing cart away shortage of parallel working tasks.

 Shortage of bar bender and workers.

 There is no way of evaluating the worker’s productivity.

 There is no motivation of workers.
