extraordinarily busy with his duties, took time out to hear, guide and keep me on the correct path and
allowing me to carry out my project at their esteemed organization and extending during the training.

deepest thanks to Aaron Lye, Ar. Farihah, Chong, Si En, Jeanette, and those for taking part in useful
decision & giving necessary advices and guidance and arranged all facilities to make life easier. I

threshold for cut tiles.
2. Experimentation on the colour scheme- Referring the types of colour from supplier
catalogue and sample to get a better impression of the item.

colour scheme of the interior designer’s design.

colour scheme on the house. The goal is to allow the contractor to understand the
construction method and materials used for the main gate.
Learning goals
1. Understanding the dimension, function and limitation of the material we specified for
contractor- consideration of the weight of the fiber board, resistance to
corrosion/coating, colour adhesion and etc.
2. Experimentation on the colour scheme- Referring the types of colour from Jotun’s
catalogue and specified them on the drawings.
3. Proper drafting technique for details drawings- following our company’s drafting
standard, plan, elevation and section drawings and proper annotation.

1. The importance of tender drawings- A tender is a submission made by a prospective
supplier in response to an invitation to tender. Tender documents may be prepared for
a range of contracts, such as equipment supply, the main construction contract
(including design by the contractor), demolition, enabling works, etc
Work tasks
After being revised by Ar. Chiam, I was assigned to amend the details drawings of the main
gate. This time round, the amendment are mainly on the sizes of the fiber board and mild
steel framework.
Learning goals
1. Buildability and maintainability- less maintenances product, light-weight materials to
ease the transportation and reduce the lifting during construction.
13
Project 3: Aster Residence Cheras

Alongside with the Managing director, Ar. Chiam, and the interior designer, Benjamin (intern
trainee) and I was assigned to document and carry out data collection for tiles in Venicera and
Feruni.

surface to suit the design
2. Selection criteria- how the thickness of the tiles react to loading, new technology that
prevents the tiles from breaking and logistically easy to be handled by builders

600mm, floor to floor height 3050m, floor to ceiling height 2700mm, brick wall
150mm, plastering 25mm.
2. Positioning of the structure- The entire process of structural planning and design
requires not only imagination and conceptual thinking but also sound knowledge of
practical aspects, such as recent design codes and bye-laws, backed up by ample
experience, institution and judgment.

4.5 Week 5 (11/2/2019 to 15/2/2019)
Project 1: Sensory Residence
Work tasks
I was assigned to improvised the tiling layout at the lift lobby, corridor and link bridge of
Tower A and B. The goal was to have a continuous and simple design and minimize the
number of cut tiles.
Learning goals
1. Exploring the layout in different programmes- Autocad, sketch-up and photoshop
2. Design intention- to give users a sense of direction and good articulation to the space
3. Construction- consideration of the cut tiles, setting out line, grouting, scupper drain
and etc.
The requirement of the size of the cut tiles is not less than 50mm. Due to budget constraint,
the height of skirting is 75mm, so one piece of 300mm x 300mm tiles can be cut into 3 to 4
pieces in order to save cost.

for mistakes and error.

5.0 Conclusion
This is my second time working with CLO Architects Sdn Bhd, it was very fulfilling for me
because I manage to see how I can contribute to this company as compared to my previous
internship with CLO Architects Sdn Bhd 2.5 years ago.
Throughout this 7 weeks, it is a very good exposure for me because I get to see how a real
architecture firm operate in real life and being able to free myself from some of the
architecture’s myths. I get to work alongside with experienced people who is very patient and
the willingness to teach me really impressed me. They inspired me to take on a bigger task
and challenge myself to the limit.
