Civil Engineering Quantities by Ivor H Seeley
This text explains the principles contained in the third edition of the "Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement" (CESMM3), and shows how they are implemented in practice. The contractual background to the measurement and valuation of civil engineering works is described in detail, as are the value and use of method-related charges. This section is extended to cover more recent forms of contract and the requirements of the 6th edition of the ICE "Conditions of Contract". All aspects of the measurement of civil engineering work, from taking-off to bill preparation are covered - these are illustrated by 22 worked examples, containing working drawings and handwritten dimension sheets with full explanatory notes. In addition to being revised and reset, the coverage is also extended with a further chapter on the measurement of the renovation of sewers and water mains. Another new worked example includes relaying railway trackwork.
