A Visit to MASSA

On 2nd May 2013, our lecturers of ENBE invited us to visit an exhibition at MASSA. MASSA stands for Modern Architecture Studies in Southeast Asia. The exhibition showcased heritage building models. The models were built by 283 students who are taking architecture.

Besides heritage building models, the measured drawings of the buildings were also showcased during the exhibition. Documenting heritage building is actually part of the requirement for ARC 1215 Methods of Documentation and Measured Drawings module.

The photos that I have taken during the exhibition:

Project 2

For Project 2, we were required to produce a 8 to 10 minutes video on the issues that are faced by the construction industry. Project 2 is a group project. Therefore, I joined forces with 6 of my course mates. My group consists of me, Felicia Tiong, Vicky Lee, Ricky Wong, Ho Tze Hooi, Arvind and Prashani. After several meetings, we made up our mind to make a video based on the life of a contractor. We interviewed Mr.Lim, a well-experienced contractor as well as developer in order to gain more knowledge about the ups and downs of the life of a professional contractor.

Project 2 has definitely taught me more than a handful of valuable lessons. After finishing this project, I have gained lots of knowledge about the construction industry. I have learnt the responsibilities of each and every team players ranging from contractor, engineer, architect, quantity surveyor to labors. All the team players are important and each plays a significant vital role in the construction industry.

Below is the link to our video. Enjoy! :)
