CE200R-2/E01

I. Preliminaries

During my internship, I had the opportunity to work at Montevista Construction Company, a highly regarded Triple A Construction Firm located at 41st Street Corner 2nd Avenue Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City. In the Engineering Department, I was fortunate enough to be under the guidance of Engr. Maria Lourdes Cordura, a highly experienced professional with a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering. She graduated at Western Mindanao State University in the year 2004 and passed the Civil Engineering Licensure Examination in the year 2005.

Engr. Cordura's extensivecareerincludes working as anofficeEngineer at JFEEngineering Corporation from June 2007 toApril 2010, and then moving on toA.Rivera Construction from April 2010 to November 2012, before finally settling in at Montevista Construction Company in November 2012. Throughout the internship, Engr. Cordura worked as an intelligent and generous adviser/mentor to us. She treated her employees with kindness and openness and taught us numerous strategies and techniques on how a construction company operates. She taught us how to deal with difficult circumstances and find immediate solutions. Her kind and passionate mentorship approach encouraged and pushed us to become better and more excellent civil engineering experts. These lessons learned will be utilized and treasured when we begin our careers as certified civil engineers.

II. Student Learnings

The OJT/internship experience was challenging but fun. From the moment I stepped in on day one to the moment I left a month later.As an intern, I felt the motivation and inspiration related to my field and expertise, and it was an unforgettable and wonderful experience where I discovered something new every day. 240 hours of work experience are required to obtain a diploma. Initially, I struggled to find a reputable company for my internship, but the school provided a list of companies I could apply to. I have contacted all the companies and haven't received any response. Luckily, Monte Vista Construction Co. was recommended by a friend, and I was able to submit my application immediately and was hired. I arrived at the company right away the other day to begin my internship and got assigned on the Engineering Department.

On the first day, I felt anxious about meeting new people and how I would be assessed. They introduced us to the company through their employees and our adviser, wherein I was treated with understanding, respect, and kindness. I received treatment that went above that of an intern. Tasks and activities throughout the internship period were also presented to us. As the days passed, we were tasked to check, estimate, and measure some of the Company's Projects. Our adviser showed a sample of the Bill of Quantities of the Lima Factory Project, located at Malvar Batangas, for us to confirm and double-check the measurements for the General Requirements and Preliminaries of this project. We were also tasked to carry out a cost estimation on a cost proposal project and to create a Construction schedule and an S-Curve for their warehouse project. I was also given an opportunity to visit and observed some of the project sites of the company. I learned how things happen during a site visit, and everything that must be applied and carried throughout the construction process. I also had the chance to

go to Lancaster New City in General Trias, Cavite, and observe actual construction bidding. There were just a few chosen contractors and subcontractors to join the event All the contractors were given the project's documentation specifics so they could evaluate and develop their own bid documents that includes the whole cost of the project, from the land/building structure's total cost up to its profit. I was unfamiliar with such events like this and fortunately, I was given opportunity to gain a lot of knowledge from how the bidding process is carried out. There were many tasks and activities given to us, in which whenever we had difficulties in figuring out such solutions, there was always someone I could seek for help.

I acquired a wide range of new skills and a thorough understanding of what an engineering company business position may entail. My input was valued throughout the process, and my ideas were put into practice, which gave me responsibilities that had a meaningful influence on their project. I had the chance to demonstrate what I had learned and understood throughout my timein college, which encouraged meto keep developingmy abilities.I hadto comprehend what is effective and ineffective for the project to provide the finest solutions for any issues that may arise. I also learned a lot about the procedure and the industry by getting feedback on what I was doing from my colleagues.

Being part of a small team in a large company has provided many benefits. This internship gave me much insight into my skills and boosted my confidence. It helped guide my career goals and will help guide my future career decisions. From the time I first joined the company until I left the company, I have collected a lot of technical strategies and information. The new knowledge will prepare me for life after graduation. My experience has helped me get closer to my goals, and I'm excited to see what my future holds.

III. Application to Civil Engineering

As an intern in the role of a Project Engineer, I was given duties that closely mirrored those of a Construction Engineering Manager in the real world. My responsibilities included conducting site inspections, monitoring project progress, estimating procurement quantities, drafting and awarding subcontractor contracts, and coordinating with the project architect on material finishes andspecifications. My on-the-job training revealedthat all ofthese tasks were practical applications of civil engineering principles.

However, I soon discovered that completing assignments for school projects differed significantly from completing them on an actual worksite. For instance, when I was assigned to prepare a Bill of Quantities (BOQ) for the SMPLima Factory Project's Column and Footing, it proved to be quite challenging. Fortunately, our advisor provided helpful guidance through the process. Additionally, I was assigned other tasks while still in the midst of creating the BOQ, which was initially overwhelming. It was tough to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously, particularly in a less-than-ideal work environment. Nevertheless, I adapted to the conditions quickly and devised methods to simplify my work.

During my internship, I also learned about common site issues, such as manpower shortages, communication problems with subcontractors, material unavailability, and delays in project timelines. I realized the importance of monitoring and verifying every aspect of the work to ensure that it adhered to the project plans.

Above all, I learned the right attitude a civil engineer must possess. Despite facing frustrating situations, a civil engineer must fulfill their responsibilities. They must confidently communicate with subcontractors, clients, architects, and interior designers while remaining

humble when interacting with the workers on the project. Through my experience, I became more confident and comfortable in my ability to communicate with a diverse range of people involved in the project.

As I completed my training, I realized the tremendous presence of civil engineering applications in our daily lives. From the houses we live into the schools we attend, from the roads we travel on to the buildings where we work, civil engineering impacts our lives in countlessways.Ilearned thatthegoalofcivilengineeringistoprovideeverythingthatcivilians require, design for the future, safeguard the present, and preserve the past.

V. WEBINAR REPORT (E –CERTIFICATES)

VI. REFLECTIONS:

“GEORELATIONS: Canvassing the Future Path in Safety, Mining, and Geotechnical Engineering” (Association of Geologists and Geological Engineers of Mapua)

REFLECTION PAPER:

For my first webinar attended on February 24, 2023, entitled “The GEORELATIONS: Canvassing the Future Path in Safety, Mining, andGeotechnical Engineering”. I have gathered and learned a lot of the material and information that I will be applying and using when I will work soon.

As we all know, engineering safety is a fundamental ethical requirement. In which, this is to address dangers and possibilities to lower the likelihood of injuries that can be anticipated, and for all the safety measures that must be performed or conducted during an event. During the webinar, the speaker claimed to have (15) fifteen years of professional experience. This is concerned with technical health, safety, and environmental management, as well as technical fire prevention and fundamental process design of petrochemical and LNG plants, such as active, passive, and F&G systems. He also performs and executes site assessments and field line checks. Engr. Quintana successfully managed risk-analysis studies in HAZOP, HAZID, HFE, and HAC. For me, He is an experienced and skilled user of Microsoft Teams as well as drafting, risk analysis, and simulation software/application.

Moreover, Engr. Syed, who has 18 years of experience and has worked in several countries, including Pakistan, the Philippines, the United Arab Emirates, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia holds an associate degree in civil engineering and a bachelor's degree in technology

with honors. According to Engr Syed, In the year 2016 He previously worked for Al Ghurair Constructions, U.A.E., and is currently a project manager at Bauer Foundations Philippines, Inc.

“ESENTIALS FOR ENGINEERING: Navigating Through Engineering Software”

(Philippine Society of Sanitary Engineers – Mapua University Student Chapter)

REFLECTION PAPER:

I had no idea what the webinar was about when it first began, aside from engineering softwar es. In which, It is a wide-ranging or a broad subject, particularly in engineering. In this webinar, there were speakers and games presented from which I myself learned a lot about, especially on the fundamentals of the software/applications that is mostly used in various branches of science and engineering, like the "workplace of environmental and sanitary engineering". One of the speakers of this webinar was Engr. Monjardin. He has a lot of information which he taught us. One was the "Hydrologic Engineering Center-River Analysis System, or also known as HEC-RAS". He was the one who created/invented this application/software which is available for everyone. This software is for modeling/simulating water quality and temperature, sediment transport, and for one and two - dimensional unsteady flows. He also added that The HECkey RAS include Hydraulic Analysis Components, Graphics and Reports, and RAS Mapper. Engr. Monjardin has also urged us, engineering students to comprehend HEC-RAS in which this Software is applicable in creating modifications in areas that are regularly/frequently being flooded.

Moreover,Ar. JohnAdam Ortega-Daquigan was the webinar's second speaker as well. He who had stated that “Our attitudes are shaped by the repeated activities that give rise to culture”.

TheABC paradigm teaches us how to handle risk in a sensible/rational way. Everyone must be capable of maintaining a strong, positive, and supportive risk culture because it impacts conformity/compliance, organizational performance, and the effectiveness of risk management.As a result, we will be better equipped to examine the risk andto create a detailed risk assessment.

Honestly, I have to admit that I am overwhelmed by the opportunity to participate in this webinar after learning a lot. It's great that The Philippine Society of Sanitary Engineers - Mapa University Student Chapter allowed me to join and offered webinars that were so helpful and educational.

The Transporter’s Course: Detouring to the Roads of Transportation Engineering. (Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers Mapúa University Student Chapter)

REFLECTION PAPER:

In this webinar, I was privileged to see the amazing journey of our speakers, engineers, throughout this webinar. They had led me to an incredible journey about their specializations which is transportation Engineering.According to information provided by our speakers, Engr. Roberto Romero and Dr. Lea Bronuela-Ambrocio, Infrastructure projects and improvements, especially those related to transportation engineering, were built, and modeled utilizing software developed byAutodesk which is very useful for Civil Engineers as well asArchitects. This software has comprehensive and extensive collection of tools and capabilities for creating/generating plans and sections, three - dimensional models/concepts, and evaluating

and displaying data for calculations. It is commonly used by transportation engineers for creating, developing, designing, and modeling roads, railroads, airports, bridges, and other transportation facilities and infrastructure. Along with Autodesk/AutoCAD, it makes work easier for the modeling and design process to transportation engineering, allowing engineers to create exact and effective solutions while reducing costs and time. The second speaker is Civil Engineer who earned a bachelor's degree in civil engineering atAdamson University in Manila in 2010, she enrolled in Chung-Ang University in Seoul, South Korea, where she would pursue a career in roadway, highways and transportation engineering in the year 2019. She spent her seven years in Korea studying horizontal structures with a focus on investigating and creating paving systems for roads, railways, and airport runways. Moreover, Dr. Bronuela-Ambrocio took part in a project to create pavement monitoring systems in several Korean airports that was being carried out by Chung-Ang University, Korean Airport Corporation, and Federal Aviation.
