It explains the estimator's function within the construction team, the techniques and procedures used in building up an estimate, and how to convert an estimate into a tender. This new edition has been written to reflect recent changes in procurement. These include the recommendations of Sir Michael Latham in his 1994 report \"Constructing the Team\", and new terminology introduced by the 6th edition of \"The CIOB Code of Estimating Practice\" 1997. The role of the estimator is covered in detail, from early cost studies through to the preparation of the estimate, and the handover of construction budgets for successful tenders. The book includes copious examples of an estimator's data sheets and pricing notes and deals with co-ordinated project information. The chapter dealing with computer-aided estimating had been completely re-written to reflect the advantages of electronic exchange of information. This textbook has been written for higher technician and degree students and for those studying for their professional examinations in construction.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49504330940689,"sku":"GOR002533042","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49635527852305,"sku":"GOR001882852","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0750634073.jpg?v=1750945269"},{"product_id":"estimating-and-tendering-for-construction-work-book-martin-brook-9781138838062","title":"Estimating and Tendering for Construction Work","description":"Estimators need to understand the consequences of entering into a contract, often defined by complex conditions and documents, as well as to appreciate the technical requirements of the project. Estimating and Tendering for Construction Work, 5th edition, explains the job of the estimator through every stage, from early cost studies to the creation of budgets for successful tenders.  This new edition reflects recent developments in the field and covers:         new tendering and procurement methods      the move from basic estimating to cost-planning and the greater emphasis placed on partnering and collaborative working      the New Rules of Measurement (NRM1 and 2), and examines ways in which practicing estimators are implementing the guidance      emerging technologies such as BIM (Building Information Modelling) and estimating systems which can interact with 3D design models  With the majority of projects procured using design-and-build contracts, this edition explains the contractor’s role in setting costs, and design statements, to inform and control the development of a project’s design.  Clearly-written and illustrated with examples, notes and technical documentation, this book is ideal for students on construction-related courses at HNC\/HND and Degree levels. It is also an important source for associated professions and estimators at the outset of their careers.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50017840988433,"sku":"GOR009487618","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50697406480657,"sku":"NGR9781138838062","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51360768459025,"sku":"GOR009066528","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52653702873361,"sku":"NLS9781138838062","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B078Z1DGF2.jpg?v=1751016543"},{"product_id":"estimating-and-tendering-for-construction-work-book-martin-brook-9781138687165","title":"Estimating and Tendering for Construction Work","description":"Estimators need to understand the consequences of entering into a contract, often defined by complex conditions and documents, as well as to appreciate the technical requirements of the project.
