SECTION B Competence and Commitment Report

Competence iv: Evidence of your effective communication and interpersonal skills with
professional commitment
Competence Element 1: Demonstrating effective personal communication (written & oral) and
social skills in engineering profession and aware of the needs and concerns of others.

Engineers are communicators. No matter what kind of engineering work you do, you must be able to clearly
communicate engineering information to get the work done. Communication is more than just telling. It also
involves active listening – making sure that you fully understands others and that they fully understand you. The
audience that you communicate with could be your boss, your clients, your colleagues, your stakeholders or even
the public. The ways that you communicate include graphically (such as drawings, sketches, schematics, flow
diagrams, or 3-D models), in writing (such as mail, email, or reports) and verbally (such as presentations,
meetings, or phone conversations etc.) and other media such as meetings (also includes virtual meeting),
discussion, training, negotiation, mediation etc.

The first step is to know your audience and make sure your message is tailored to their knowledge and needs.
After delivering any message, you ensure that the audience understands with question and answer. You respond
to questions and their input in the same way, checking that you understand what the audience is asking before
responding.

 I also ensure reinforcing steel for walls, piers, columns and similar vertical structures adequately
supported to prevent overturning and collapse.
 I also ensure that forms and shores not removed until the concrete gained sufficient strength to support

 I ensure that, the concrete has been properly tested with an appropriate American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) standard test method designed to indicate the concrete compressive strength, and
the test results indicate that the concrete has gained sufficient strength to support its weight and
superimposed loads.
 Developing, implementing and improving appropriate hazard identification and risk management system.

 The first step in the risk management process is identifying hazards through the life cycle of
project/building or structure. This involves identifying anything that may cause injury or harm to the
health of a person during the life cycle of a project/building or structure as a workplace. There are
number of ways to identify potential hazards that may cause injury or harm. Choosing an appropriate
process or procedure for identifying them will depend on their nature and that of the project/building or
structure as workplace. For example:- fire risk, risk from electricity (electrocution), risk of working
environment, risk of excavation, earth work, structural work, handling of hazardous material, risk of
noise, risk of fumes/dusts, inadequate access, inadequate access for maintenance, falls and risk of not
wearing protective equipment for protection of head (helmet), eyes (eye shield), ears (plug), hands
(gloves), feet (boot), respiratory (mask) etc.
 Second step in the risk management process is assessing the risks of injury or harm arising from the
hazards identified for the particular building or structure. This involves looking at the chance or likelihood
of a hazard occurring and if it does occur, the extent of any harm or injury, the consequences. It is a way
of deciding which hazards need to be addressed first, i.e. where there is the highest risk of injury or
harm.
 For assessing design safety I used risk assessment method such as:
- Fact finding to determine existing controls, if any;
- Testing design assumptions to ensure that aspects of it are not based on incorrect beliefs or
anticipations on the part of the designer, as to how workers or others involved will act or react
- Testing of structures or components specified for use in the construction, end use and maintenance;
- Consulting with key people who have the specialized knowledge and/or capacity to control or
influence the design, for example the architect, client, construction manager, engineers, project
managers and safety and health representatives, to identify and assess risks;
- Consulting directly with other experts, for example, specialist engineers or designers, manufacturers
and product or system designers who have been involved with similar constructions;
- When designing for the renovation or demolition of existing buildings, reviewing previous design
documentation or information recorded about the design structure and any modifications

 BPERB/PEng/1

undertaken to address safety concerns;

- Consulting professional industry or employee associations who may assist with risk assessments for
the type of work and workplace.
 I change design to improve safety after conducting risk assessment for example:
- Corridors widened for safer access for movement of goods and people;
- Standard doors enlarged by 25 percent to improve access for equipment;
- Equipment and lights repositioned to allow for easier/safer maintenance access;
- Windows changed to ‘flip over’ for easy inside cleaning;
- Air conditioner moved to ground level, with the ducts remaining as planned.
 Third step (risk control), is to implement control measures to eliminate or reduce the risk of a person
being injured or harmed and ensure they are monitored and reviewed on an ongoing basis. The preferred
order of control measures to eliminate or reduce the risk of injury or harm:
- Elimination – removing the hazard from the building or structure design by ‘designing it out’, e.g.
replacing slippery onyx tiles with ceramic tiles, which have a ‘rougher’ finish;
- Substitution – substituting or replacing a hazard or hazardous design component with a less
hazardous one through a process of redesign, e.g. replacing concrete panels with wood or steel
where the specification requires completed and stabilized panels to be an angle of 30 degrees,
thereby reducing the hazard to workers from having to fix concrete panels at this angle;
- Isolation – isolating or separating the hazard from people involved in the work or people in the
general work area, e.g. prefabricating off site, thereby reducing worker’s exposure to the fabrication
process, as well as minimizing installation time;
- Engineering controls – if the hazard cannot be eliminated, substituted or isolated, an engineering
control, e.g. a guard or barrier, is the next preferred measure and should be specified in the design
notes;
- Administrative controls – these include noting in the design, the work practices needed to reduce
risks, such as providing procedures, instruction and training. Requiring construction of components
off site to reduce dust levels on site is an example of an administrative control.
 I take potential control measure to implement safety protective measures for building elements such as:
- Excavation – avoiding additional or different excavation depths near site boundary, for example
designing lift shafts away from boundaries.
- Walls and tilt-up panels – limiting the size of tilt panels where site access is restricted; considering
the use of pour strips to assist in stability of wall panels.
