Assignment Introduction
Assignment Introduction
This assignment is planned to assess the following tasks of Building Measurements
Different uses of measurement and apply the technique to differing situations on a construction
project
relationship between measurement and the different parties involved in the design, production and
maintenance of a construction project
determine the correct form of contract documentation for a given particular purpose or situation
Taking off quantities for structural concrete items in superstructure and substructure
All measurement work should be based on the NRM2. Each task should be on a fresh sheet of paper using
one side only. Waste calculation is to be prepared in the appropriate place on the dimension sheet. Careful
attention to be paid on method of reaching dimensions, waste calculations, accurate dimensions, entering
the dimensions, clear and accurate work description with standard abbreviations, abstracting and billing
techniques and cleanliness are essential in your work. If any dimension scaled from the drawing it should
be indicated.
Reasonable assumptions can be made where necessary and inserted them in the query sheet before starting
the measurement work.
Assignment Scenario
The quantity surveyors play a vital role in taking off quantities or measuring work items during the design,
construction and production phases of a project. Furthermore, measurement activities will take place
during initial and/or approximate estimating techniques, production of contract documentation,
measurement of variations, sub-contract and supply chain packages, final account procedures, maintenance
and refurbishment works. Assume that you are working as a quantity surveyor to a contracting company.

student
may
complete
measurement for reinforcemant and insert them in to the boq by taking their own
time).
