Parties involved in the project and their roles and responsibilities as defined by
their respective professional bodies.
7.1
architect. Their roles are to provide predesign figures such as an environmental impact or
feasibility study, cost analysis and land-use study. Architects work closely with their clients.
Before drafting plans, they meet with their clients several times to learn their clients
objectives, budget and any specific requirements for their project. So that, he can clarify the
clients requirements in respect of project, study possible solutions and make design proposal.
Designing, planning and developing are integral tasks in an architects daily routine.
Architects need to consult with other professionals about design and produce detailed
workings, drawings and specifications (Prospects.ac.uk., 2016).
Moreoover ,as a qualified expert in building and environmental design, the aarchitect
maintains close relationship with the building industry. He coordinates the necessary
engineering and environmental service to his design so as to achieve developer objectives.
His has knowledge about site analysis, building designs and complex regulations. Since the
aarchitect is familiar with building construction in term of what material to use, what
problems to look for on site and which contractors to go on, he can prepare probable costs
and the construction programmed in respect of any proposal he prepare. Architects also work
with other related professionals, such as engineers, landscape architects, construction
representatives and interior designers (Prospects.ac.uk., 2016).
However, final construction plans are created by architects and used by contractor as
guidences on how the look and details of the building will play out, including plumbing,
communication and heating, electrical, ventilation and structural systems.
in particular fields such as roads, railways, airports, bridges, harbours, dams, irrigation
projects, power plants, water and sewerage systems. They also design and build tall buildings
and large structures. Civil engineers can either be consulting engineers who advise on the
projects and design them, or contracting engineers who turn their plans into reality and
maintain the structures after the completion of contruction..
Moreover, responsibilitiesof civil engineer are supervising tendering procedures and
putting together proposals. And also managing and supervising contractors on site and
advising on civil engineering issues. Civil engineers need to assessing the potential risks of
specific projects as well as undertaking risk management in specialist roles. Besides that, they
have to ensuring projects run smoothly and structures are completed within budget and on
time.
7.3 Quantity Surveyor Suffian Bersekutu
A role of quantity surveyor in a project of construction of railway project
concerned with building costs. They are provided a general set of skills that to solve
diverse variety of problems during the construction period. They are dominantly in
charging of costs and contracts on construction projects.
Before the construction being started, quantity surveyor might carried out the
feasibility study to gain more information about the project and roughly estimate the cost
involved based of the designer and the drawing provided by the Keretapi Tanah Melayu.
The quantity surveyor have plan the cost by having a lot of meeting with design teams to
ensure that the project is always within the budget of the client. Besides, quantity surveyor
had carried out the estimating and measurement of construction works for tendering,
producing the bill of quantities, prepare the tender documentation and handle the tender
process, clarified and evaluated tenderers. After that, the estimating is finalised by the
quantity surveyor and project architect for basis of evaluating the tenders (Wynn,B.,
(2013).
When the construction of work was started, the quantity surveyor would provided the cash
flow data so that the client able to arrange their finances needed for each stage of the
construction process. Quantity surveyor had accessed to site to ensure that projects are
designed and constructed accordingly as per architectures drawings as to secure value for
money, cost certainty and programme dates. They also need to take care of the cost effects
when the project occur, such as delays, and agree on variation with contractors. Then
quantity surveyor would provide a bank with a project report and help a client by preparing
draw down certificates for money to be loaned from the bank. They also responsible to
resolve the disputes between clients, designers and building contractors and other teams who
was involved in this project(Wynn,B., (2013).
The Quantity Surveyor are involved in prepare reports to the Project Manager. They
also have to advice the project managers in the decision-making process throughout the
management of a project from initial to final stages of construction. Finally, a statement of
final account would be prepared by quantity surveyors which recorded all the actual costs
for all section of the jobs (NZIQS, 2016).
7.4 Licensed Land Surveyor Jurukur Sekutu
Land surveyor is engage by the project manager in this railway project. The main
responsibility of land surveyor is to measure the shape of the land and gather the data of land
level for civil engineering and the construction project.
After the collection of land data, the land surveyor will need to analyze the shape of
the land for civil engineering and construction project. At the initial step, land surveyor needs
to carry out the surveys on the assessment of impact of railway work to environment in order
to evaluate the workability of the construction plan proposed by project engineer
(Charpentier, W., 2016).
Land surveyors are using the surveying instrument and GPS to chart the exact
coordinates of site features. These instruments will make the land surveyor able to work more
accurately and reduced the error during the construction process. Besides, land surveyor also
needs to produce the digital image of the sites and mapping of the land by using the satellite
photography. Moreover, they have responsibility to gather the data by using geographic
information systems (GIS) to do analyses and interpretation of the site features (Charpentier,
W., 2016).
During the construction, land surveyor responsible to monitor the land movement and
subsidence caused by the construction process.
for economic
development on the increase of revenue to communities due to increased property value and
private sector investment. The analysis will help to evaluate and provide recommendation for
the transit oriented design and smart growth (Anon, 2016).
With all the consideration and analysis above, the recommendation on the design
elements, components and facilities would be prepared by the project study team which lead
by project manager. Finally, the preliminary site plans would be developed as per required for
each station (Finance,2015)..
Based on the information input from the tasks above, a draft study document will be
prepared and the document will undergoes a public comment period. Then, the second public
meeting would be held to present the preliminary recommendation and the finding from all
the analysis (Finance, 2015).
Finally, after all the proposed of final document should be done. The element in the
final document should include the railway station design, railway, and the optimal location on
which locate the passenger rail facilities. At the same time, the recommendation for further
initiative and to re-establish passenger rail service including to funding of capital
improvements should be done in the final document (Anon, 2016).
