QSB 3615 Professional Practice 2

This subject provides me an overview of professional and contractual responsibilities of a Quantity Surveyor in the consultancy setup from the inception stage to the final account stage. This subject focus on the importance of a clear understanding of the organization and contract administration of quantity surveying practices and the legal and contractual procedures in relation to build environment.

Throughout the semester, I'm able to explain various construction contracts, the limitation and constraints and define the issues in interpreting the contract clauses of the construction contract. Besides I am now also able to describe team dynamic, power of teams and teamwork in construction contracts. 

Besides that, the lecturer also provides very good explanation on the clauses of the PAM Contract 2006 (with quantities). This allows me to fully understand the PAM form more clearer and it's easy for me when it comes to the assignment given. 

Besides the highlight of the module is the seminar, it is a very interesting assignment. The assignment is that the students have to group with their friends and they all will work on the same topic. I find it very interesting as we able to fully understand the particular chapter and we are also able to "set" questions for the other students to answer.
