 project with name of Fernvale Lea is located in Seng kang west way, Singapore. Following the consultant drawing, the stack of unit 505 in block 467A was constructed with straight windows at the master bedroom. However, it was found deviating from the sales brochure which HDB offers to the flat owners before the subscription. To put down the issue in a reasonable period in case of delaying the data of owners’ check-in, Qing jian South Pacific company Fernvale Lea main-contractor project department adopt a series of construction methods to accomplish the urgent task. According to the updated drawing, the column position should change to supply enough room for installing L-shape window. So hacking the original hollow panel is the first step of construction rectification. After that, new column besides the L-shape window need to be cast in order to support the structure for safety. Installing window frame and providing reliable water proofing need to be done before the architectural work begins. Last but not least, the canopy of each story should adjust to the L-shape window so casting concrete work should proceed in the whole construction rectification process.&picture=http://www.aascit.org/aascit/decorators/img/journal/896.jpg)
