I feel sorry for this chap. It takes a 60-page report to arrive at this conclusion. What's interesting is I thought this project was project managed by JKR; and they are the ones that conduct the inspection post incident? Additionally the report also pointed out the project management team didn't have the "necessary skills and competence to manage a project of such magnitude and complexity." And this would absolve them?
In the end, I believe this proceeding will drag on and this guy will somehow be slapped with a short sentence. And the credibility of our engineering projects will always be questioned.Amplify’d from thestar.com.my
Engineer charged over Terengganu stadium collapse
Wan Manan Wan Ali, 51, from Kuala Ibai, here, claimed trail while Justice M. Bakri Abdul Majid fixed March 17 as the re-mention date.
Based on the charge sheet, Wan Manan was alleged to have acted like an approved examiner in issuing a document dated Jan 15, 2009 on the main roof truss system and its related works for the proposal to construct the main stadium, known as the Terengganu Sport Complex.
An investigation committee established by the Public Works Department to determine the cause of the collapse at the RM292mil stadium underlined several crucial factors in a detailed 60-page confidential report submitted to the state government one year after the incident.
It also stated that the project management team did not have the necessary skills and competence to manage a project of such magnitude and complexity.
The committee also noted that the management team had failed to conduct a design analysis, considering that the complex architectural shape and large spans made the structure very sensitive to any movement in the supporting structures.
