Uniform Building By-Laws, 1984 & Amendments 2007

Eid Mubaraq to Muslim brothers and happy holidays to all.

I have been asked to give a talk to a few engineering students at the UiTM tomorrow, Saturday, 26 September 2009 as part of their menu of external input for their Engineers in the Society series of lectures.

The topic is on the Uniform Building By-Law, 1984 [UBBL] and its amendments in 2007 and how the provisions within it affect the engineering fraternity.

I have prepared a paper for the talk for their benefit. The paper is a product of a bit of desk research, input from colleagues and a bit from experience. I have not put in the proper references and the usuals for a proper paper but I can pass it up to whomever interested to give valuable feedbacks as well as offering it for reference to those who will benefit.

Once I found out how to attach a pdf file to this blog or wherever then I will upload it for public downloading. Before then I will arrange somehow to pass it over individually.

My next effort will be to review the UBBL from the architectural perspective.
God willing.
